About the movie: An all-star revue featuring MGM contract players.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Hollywood Revue of 1929 (1929)?
a.		Kate Capshaws dress in the Shanghai club was completely made of 1920s and 1930s original beads. This meant that there was only enough to make one dress. The opening dance number was actually the last scene to be shot, but the dress did feature in some earlier location shots in Sri Lanka, in particular, a night-time one with Harrison Ford and Kate Capshaw sitting by a campfire, with the dress drying on a nearby tree. Unfortunately an elephant had started to eat the entire back of the dress, which was saved just in time. Consequently, some emergency repair work had to be done with what remained of the original beads, and it was costume designer Anthony Powell who had to fill in the insurance forms. As to the reason for damage, he had no option but to put "dress eaten by elephant".
b.		After considering a proposal to shoot the film in Romania (due to its inexpensiveness), Todd Haynes decided to shoot the film entirely in Montreal.

7.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Hollywood Revue of 1929 (1929)?
a.		The company had rented many local pinto horses for the filming of the Indian attack on the train. During filming, however, local cowboys had to be hired to round up the horses, as they would scatter and sometimes stampede because of the noise and confusion of these scenes - all the shooting, yelling, and yards of unfamiliar cloth on the horses, along with kettles and other implements tied to their manes and tails, made them extremely nervous and uncomfortable, and it didnt require much to make them bolt.
b.		The movie (along with several others) takes the story from Carlos Hathcock, who shot a enemy sniper through his scope and sending the bullet through the eye. This is registered as a confirmed kill due to the fact that his spotter, John Roland Burke witnessed the kill and surveyed the scene after the kill. Given the flight time of rounds at long ranges, both snipers could easily have killed one another. The enemy rifle was recovered and the incident is documented by a photograph. This event was previously described on this IMDb site as a "myth", but that is not true. It is fully documented and confirmed by the United States Marine Corps.
c.		Reportedly features every major MGM star of the day with the exception of Greta Garbo, Ramon Novarro and Lon Chaney. Garbo was slated to appear in the film, which was supposed to be her talkie debut, in a scene from George Bernard Shaws "Saint Joan", but the idea was later scrapped when Garbo decided that _Anna Christie_ was to be her first sound film.
d.		The one-take master shot scene of Lenny doing his act in a raincoat near the end of the film came from an actual tape recorded from a show he did that was sent to Dustin Hoffman by a student who saw the show. Lennys exact words in the scene on stage are verbatim from the tape of his show.
