1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Earl of Chicago (1940)?
a.		The camera Dr. Pat Medford is using in the helicopter is a Stereo Realist, which is a 35mm format stereoscopic (3-D) still camera. This is both perfectly natural and ironic since the film itself was originally planned as a 3-D release.
b.		Izabella Scorupco was offered the lead female role but turned it down, fearing she was too young for the part.
c.		In the original script, the name of the school was Barbara Bush High School.
d.		Producer Victor Saville directed exterior scenes in London, some of which were incorporated into the final print.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Earl of Chicago (1940)?
a.		The film shows racing taking place on the banked oval section of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza in Italy, but in fact the oval section of that racetrack had not been used for the Formula 1 Italian Grand Prix since 1961. This section of the track was still used, however, for races involving other classes of cars until 1969. The Monza 1,000 Kilometre, for example, reserved for the Sports, Prototype and Grand Touring categories, used the full 10KM course (including the high-speed banked oval section) from 1965 to 1969. Ironically, the tragic fatal accident in the 1961 Italian Grand Prix (which took the life of German driver Wolfgang Von Trips, and 14 spectators) did not occur in the banked oval section but just prior to the "Parabolic" curve, which is part of the Road Course section of Monza. This road course, with modifications for safety and since the retirement of the banked oval section, has comprised the entire circuit at Monza ever since.
b.		The practice of trying members of the British gentry before their peers was put to a stop in 1946, six years after this movie was made.
c.		The Swedish flag can be seen flying over Johns camp in Afghanistan. This is an homage to director Lasse Hallströms home country of Sweden.
d.		This movies title, as with the earlier version To Be or Not to Be, is taken from a line in William Shakespeares "Hamlet", written around the year 1600. The "To be or not to be" line is one of the most famous quotations in literature, taken from Hamlets soliloquy. As both versions of this film involve a Polish theatrical troupe, this is therefore explains the relevance of the line as a film title. The full version of the stanza it appears in: "To be or not to their titles. To be or not to be - that is the question: Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer. The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune: Or to take arms against a sea of troubles."
