5.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Roman Scandals (1933)?
a.
The cliff climbing scene was shot "day for night", meaning that the footage was shot during the day and underexposed with a bluish tint (in post-production).

Faster film stock has made the technique less common.
