This quiz will test your movies knowledge by asking you questions related to the various famous movie trivia from the Hollywood movie: River's Edge (1986).

1.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: River's Edge (1986)?
a.
A Super Jewel Production. Universal, lacking a proprietary theater chain, used a 3-tiered branding system to market its feature product to independent theater owners: Red Feather (low-budget programmers), Bluebird (mainstream releases) and Jewel (prestige productions). As one of the few "Super Jewels", this film was virtually assured special treatment by exhibitors who would normally demand higher roadshow ticket prices. Universal would cease to brand its films by late 1929.
b.
Mack Sennett
intended this film to be Keystones first entry out of the comedy genre and into drama. When it was previewed (as "Heart Balm"), however, audiences howled with laughter, much to Sennetts embarrassment. Not one to let embarrassment stand in the way of making a buck, however, he did some rewriting, performed some judicious editing, changed the title and released it as a comedy. None of the changes worked, however, and the film was one of Sennetts bigger flops.
c.
Cole Porter
s "Easy to Love," partially sung by
Lee Wilde
, then danced by Lee and
Lyn Wilde
at Joes Place, had been intended for an earlier Hardy film. The ballad was set for Judy Garland to sing in
Life Begins for Andy Hardy
, but this song, along with three other Garland vocals, was cut from the film. Judys prerecording of the Porter classic can be listened to on the Rhino CD, "Judy Garland: Collectors Gems from the M-G-M Films."
d.
In the 90s, the New York Times television page printed this super-concise and compressed, five-word synopsis of this movie: "Teens close ranks over murder."
