1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Divorcee (1930)?
a.		The listing for Robert Z. Leonard as "producer" is actually in lieu of a directors credit. At the time, instead of crediting its directors as such, MGM frequently listed their names as "A blank Production" on the same card as the main title.

a.		Laird Cregar, who had come to notice in Hollywood by playing Oscar Wilde on stage, was considered for the role of Lord Henry.
b.		Bobby Driscoll only had a 3 month work permit in England so all his scenes were filmed first, a long way out of continuity, in order to complete his role in time.
c.		"The Divorcee" is one of the few films made by actress Florence Eldridge, who plays Helen, that did not also feature her far more famous husband, actor Fredric March.
d.		Because of the popularity of the two earlier Godfather movies, Frank Sinatra reversed his anti-Godfather stance and expressed interest in playing Don Altobello.

She was eager to change her image and do parts that were more sensuous, so she launched a campaign to get the part of Jerry. MGM producers were skeptical - none more so than Irving Thalberg, who was also Shearers husband. To convince him that she could handle a more "sexy" role, Shearer did a photo shoot with her posing provocatively in lingerie, and after seeing the pictures, Thalberg agreed to cast her. The decision paid off, as Shearer won Best Actress at the Academy Awards that year.
c.		Throughout the film Joel Miller opens a number of scenes with Jason Barry posed to reference famous pieces of art. Jacques-Louis Davids "Death of Marat," Michelangelos distorted, disconsolate self portrait that is within "the flayed skin" Bartholomew holds in the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelos "Pieta," and Roudins "The Thinker."
