1.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Captain Hates the Sea (1934)?
a.
The movie was originally to be titled A.I., but after a survey it was revealed that too many people thought it was A1. The title was changed to A.I. Artificial Intelligence to prevent people from thinking it was about steak sauce.
b.
Actor John Gilberts career was waning by the time he was hired by poverty row studio Columbia for this picture. Gilberts lucrative contract option had been dropped by the larger and richer MGM studios because his voice had tested higher than suited his masculine screen image. With his career in shambles, Gilbert had begun to drink heavily, but thanks mainly to the support of his friend Lewis Milestone, Gilbert was hired by Columbia for this picture...with the sole condition that he remain sober throughout the production. Unfortunately, Gilbert by this time was an alcoholic unable to stay away from drinking for very long, particularly among such heavy-drinking cast members as
Walter Catlett
and
Victor McLaglen
. Keeping the cast sober proved impossible, even while filming at sea. In a rage at the mounting expenditures, Columbia president Harry Cohn telegraphed director Milestone, Return to studio. The cost is staggering. Milestone wired back, So is the cast!

c.
Director
Lewis Milestone
needed to persuade Columbia Pictures president
Harry Cohn
to hire actor
John Gilbert
for this picture. At the time it was generally believed that Gilberts voice recorded higher in pitch than suited his masculine silent screen image, but Milestone believed that Gilberts voice recorded higher in pitch because of the actors anxiety at having to test for MGM as a means of defending his exorbitant salary there. Gilbert agreed to submit to a new voice-test for the role as a means of persuading Cohn that his casting in the picture was a viable investment. With his friend Milestone directing the test for the Columbia picture his voice recorded perfectly and John Gilbert was hired for the role.
