2.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Run of the Arrow (1957)?
a.
Prior to its successful Broadway run,"Visit To A Small Planet" was first aired as a television play on May 8, 1955 on the Goodyear Television Playhouse. While some sources places another broadcast of this play in 1957, Gore Vidal did publish a collection of television plays in 1956 entitled "Visit to a Small Planet and Other Television Plays". The play opened on Broadway on February 7, 1957 at the Boothe Theater and ran for 388 performances.
b.
Originally conceived by
Richard Williams
as an attempt to make the greatest animated film of all time, it later became his own "reason for living." After failing to secure funds from private investors or a studio to make the film, Williams decided to finance the film on his own, taking small jobs on television commercials or Saturday morning cartoons and using the proceeds to hire his own group of animators. The production moved in fits and starts until the success of
Who Framed Roger Rabbit
allowed Williams to make a deal with Warner Bros. to finance and distribute the film. As the production continued, however, it became obvious that Williams would not meet the 1991 release date originally set by the studio due to numerous delays, not the least of which were the directors insistence on absolute perfection and hesitation in using storyboards - two circumstances which often resulted in whole sequences being scrapped and re-shot. With Warner Bros. nervous over the release of Disneys
Aladdin
, which resembled
The Princess and the Cobbler
in story, tone and style (many of the animators on the Disney feature had also worked for
Richard Williams
), the studio turned over completion of the film to the Completion Bond Company, which promptly fired
Richard Williams
and brought on animator
Fred Calvert
to finish the film as cheaply and quickly as possible. Calvert heavily re-edited the film and altered the story, bringing in
Matthew Broderick
,
Jennifer Beals
and
Jonathan Winters
to re-dub the lead characters. Eventually distributed by Miramax, the film was cut even further before debuting in theaters (See the Alternate Versions page for more details). Though bootleg copies of
Richard Williams
original work-print continue to circulate and several restoration attempts have been proposed, an official "Directors Cut" has yet to be released.
c.
The first film to use squibs to simulate realistic bullet impacts.
d.
The opening tracking shot of the flashlight lit archive was shot backwards, and then reversed in post.
3.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Run of the Arrow (1957)?
a.
Barry Sonnenfeld
delivered the film to the studio $1 million under budget.
b.
At the time of its release, many critics commented favorably on director
Samuel Fuller
s "artistic" decision to concentrate on the feet of the participants in the actual "run of the arrow" rather than showing them in their entirety. In an interview, Fuller said there was a very simple reason for his decision: star
Rod Steiger
had badly sprained his ankle just before the scene was to be shot and wasnt able to walk, let alone run, so Fuller got one of the Indian extras who was built somewhat like Steiger to run in his place, which is why he shot only feet instead of close-ups or medium shots.
c.
Crowds can be difficult to manage simply because of the effort needed to maintain their concentration. During the filming of
Grand Prix
there was a scene where a flaming car is driven into the pits. It was about 4 oclock in the afternoon and the director,
John Frankenheimer
, was disgusted by the crowds lack of reaction to the dramatic action during the rehearsals. They appeared to be more interested in their tea break. Frankenheimer called his special effects man over and told him to blow up the tea van when given the signal. The unit went for a take. The flaming sports car came into the pits. The crowd looked on. The signal was given and the tea truck exploded. The crowd reacted and Frankenheimer got his shot This is an extreme example of how to direct crowds. (from "Production Management for Film and Video" by Richard Gates)
d.
At the end of the opening cast credits, there is "Also Cast of the original "DRUNKARD" Company." However, since the earliest production of "The Drunkard" premiered in New York City in 1843, the production referred to was undoubtedly the one in Los Angeles which premiered on 6 July 1933 at the Little Theatre Mart and ran for several years. The Cast list for the Los Angeles production is not available.
