b.		The 1997 documentary, The Silver Screen: Color Me Lavender, uses footage of Gary Cooper and George Raft hanging by their thumbs in Souls at Sea to illustrate the homoerotic possibilities in showing bare-chested men suffering in bondage. Theres also a suggestion that the relationship in Hollywood movies between the leading man and his male best friend, while not overtly sexual, is often stronger and deeper than the relationship between the leading man and his leading lady.
c.		The Alphabet crimes are: A: Adrianos (jewellery store) B: Bogomil (Taggart and Rosewoods commanding officer) C and D: City Deposit E and F: Empyrian Fields (race track)
d.		Ray Bolger was originally cast as the Tin Woodsman. However, he insisted that he would rather play the Scarecrow - his childhood idol, Fred Stone had originated that role on stage in 1902. Buddy Ebsen had been cast as the Scarecrow, and now switched roles with Bolger. Unbeknownst to him, however, the make-up for the Tin Man contained aluminum dust, which ended up coating Ebsens lungs. He also had an allergic reaction to it. One day he was physically unable to breathe and had to be rushed to hospital. The part was immediately recast and MGM gave no public reason why Ebsen was being replaced. The actor considered this the biggest humiliation he ever endured and a personal affront. When Jack Haley took over the part of the Tin Man, he wasnt told why Ebsen had dropped out (and in the meantime, the Tin Man make-up had changed from aluminum dust to aluminum paste as one of its key components). However, his vocals remain whenever the song "Were off to see the Wizard" is played. Jack Haleys vocals were never used during the song, but were used for "If I only had a Heart" and "If I only had the Nerve." Ebsens vocals are also heard in the extended version of "If I were King of the Forest," though the spoken segment has Jack Haley. Although no Ebsen footage from the film has ever been released, surviving still photos show him taking part in the Wicked Witchs castle sequence.

c.		Both Robert De Niro and Nick Nolte had to alter their physiques for the film because the 61", bulky, Nolte is clearly larger than the 510", slimmer De Niro. Nolte lost a good deal of weight while shooting the film and De Niro bulked up his muscles considerably until De Niro was clearly Noltes physical superior. Interestingly the original Sam Bowden (Gregory Peck) was also slightly taller than the original Max Cady (Robert Mitchum).
d.		In the opening credits of the film you can make out the face of Anthony Hopkins being formed by pigeons until the end of the credits when you can clearly see his face.
