1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Song of the Thin Man (1947)?
a.		The thirteenth of fourteen films pairing William Powell and Myrna Loy.
b.		Allens first cut was deemed to be decidedly unfunny, including his death scene in a slow-mo hail of bullets, like Bonnie and Clyde. Producers Jack Rollins and Charles H. Joffe convinced him to sit with top editor Ralph Rosenblum to see what could be salvaged. The first thing Rosenblum did was cut out the gory ending, then he restructured the film completely, and generally tightened up Allens loose narrative. This effort transformed the finished film into a comedy classic. Rosenblum subsequently became Allens editor of choice on most of his next films, including Bananas, Sleeper, Love and Death and Annie Hall.

Notable landmarks include the Johnny Rockets restaurant on Woodward Avenue across from Comerica Park, the giant building mural of Detroit Red Wings captain Steve Yzerman, the U.S. Federal Building, and the raised tracks of the People Mover. These shots were overlaid with CGI-produced shots of tall, futuristic buildings to create the composite city of "Los Angeles".
b.		The sixth of six "Thin Man" movies starring William Powell and Myrna Loy, filmed early January-mid March 1947.
