4.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Chocolate Soldier (1941)?
a.
When the stage version of "The Chocolate Soldier" premiered, it was as a musical adaptation of
George Bernard Shaw
s satirical play "Arms and the Man". Shaw strongly voiced his outrage over the way his play had been adapted and forbade any other musical adaptations of his plays (at least, as long as he was alive). "The Chocolate Soldier" had already been made into a silent film using the plot of Shaws "Arms and the Man" (
The Chocolate Soldier
), but when this film was made, the plot of
Ferenc Molnar
s "The Guardsman" was used so as not to further offend Shaw, who was still alive.
b.
According to interviews,
Patricia Quinn
(Magenta) only took the role in the play because she loved the opening song "Science Fiction - Double Feature." She was upset when she didnt get to sing the song in the film, but agreed to lip-sync the words as the pair of red lips in the beginning with vocals by
Richard OBrien
(Riff Raff)
c.
Fifth feature film directed by

. As all of Gries previous films had arguably been B-movies, this film can be considered Gries first A-movie production. His credits prior to this film were dominated by writing and director gigs on television.
d.
In 1939, the Hollywood Production Code dictated what could and could not be shown or said on screen, and Rhett Butlers memorable last line presented a serious problem. A few of the suggested alternatives were "Frankly my dear... I just dont care," "... it makes my gorge rise," "... my indifference is boundless," "... I dont give a hoot," and "... nothing could interest me less." Although legend persists that the Hays Office fined Selznick $5,000 for using the word "damn", in fact the Motion Picture Association board passed an amendment to the Production Code on November 1, 1939, to insure that Selznick would be in compliance with the code. Henceforth, the words "hell" and "damn" would be banned except when their use "shall be essential and required for portrayal, in proper historical context, of any scene or dialogue based upon historical fact or folklore ... or a quotation from a literary work, provided that no such use shall be permitted which is intrinsically objectionable or offends good taste." With that amendment, the Production Code Administration had no further objection to Rhetts closing line, "Frankly, my dear, I dont give a damn."
5.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Chocolate Soldier (1941)?

b.
Puck and Jennys sex scene and break up scene dialogue were from the writer/director/producer
Elisabeth Fies
love life.
c.
According to
Ashley Judd
, when she first met director
William Friedkin
at a social event, she complimented him on a scene in
French Connection II
that she really loved, unaware that Friedkin had not directed it. According to Judd, Friedkin was very "gracious" about it.
d.
In 1924,
Alfred Lunt
and
Lynn Fontanne
starred on Broadway in what is considered the definitive version of the non-musical play "The Guardsman". This was adapted from Hungarian to English by
Philip Moeller
. This production opened at the Garrick Theatre in New York on Oct. 13, 1924 and ran for 248 performances.
6.
Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Chocolate Soldier (1941)?
a.
The films screenplay was adapted by
Frank S. Nugent
from
Alan Le May
s 1954 novel of the same name, that was first serialized as a short story in late fall 1954 issues of the Saturday Evening Post, and first titled, "The Avenging Texans", acknowledged similarities existed between the films script and an actual Comanche kidnapping of a young white girl in Texas in 1836.
b.
Roy Huggins
wrote the screenplay, which is based on his "Saturday Evening Post" serial.
c.
This has interesting origins from musical and non-musical plays. In 1909, the operetta "The Chocolate Soldier" opened in New York. This was based on the non-musical play "Arms and the Man" by
George Bernard Shaw
. However, Shaw voiced objections to his play being adapted as an operetta. A silent film adaptation,
The Chocolate Soldier
, based on the New York operetta, omitted any reference to
George Bernard Shaw
. In 1911, a Hungarian non-musical play "Testör" ("The Guardsman") by
Ferenc Molnár
, opened in Budapest. In 1941 when this film was made,
George Bernard Shaw
was still alive. Therefore, the music of the New York operetta and the plot of the Hungarian non-musical play "The Guardsman" were used.
d.
The only Star Wars Original Trilogy film that does not take place on the desert planet Tatooine (although it is mentioned by name at the end of the film). Tatooine also appears in Episodes I, II, and III, making it the only planet that appears five times in the entire saga.
