Backstories for the characters Max and Sol were conceived by Sean Guilette and Darren Aronofsky, but never written for the film.

If you look closely at Sols wrists, you can see prison tattoos.
5.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Quiz Show (1994)?

As a result of the producers splitting the film into two parts, Screen Actors Guild contracts now often feature what is called a "Salkind Clause," which requires producers to state up front how many films are being shot, and that the actors involved must be paid for each. The latter clause applies even, or even especially, when producers make that decision during or after production.
b.
Producers
Barry Levinson

Mark Johnson
had their names taken off the credits even though they had been instrumental in getting the film made. They settled instead for a namecheck for their production company Baltimore Pictures. This was because they felt that listing eleven producer credits for just one film was far too many.
c.
Release prints were delivered to theaters with the fake title "Rummy 2".
d.
Frank Capra
strove to make scenes as real as he could for actors. Thus the first kiss between Stewart and Reed was shot at the same time as the other end of the phone conversation, with Sam Wainwright (

6.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Quiz Show (1994)?

b.
Apparently,
Dustin Hoffman
s screen test consisted of him fumbling his lines and awkwardly trying to grab
Katharine Ross
s behind, which angered her. As he left thinking he didnt get the role, his awkwardness was just what director
Mike Nichols
needed for Benjamin Braddock.

The real
Herb Stempel
makes an unbilled appearance as one of the former contestants interviewed by Richard Goodwin.
