1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Roundup (1941)?
a.		When Stanley Kramer offered the role of E.K. Hornbeck to Gene Kelly, Kelly initially turned it down. Kramer told him that his co-stars would be Fredric March and Spencer Tracy, and Kelly changed his mind. This was a risky move on Kramers part, as he had not yet asked March or Tracy to participate.
b.		As in many cases of book-to-screen adaptations, quite a few things were altered between the book "Return to Peyton Place" and the movie. Some of these include: Allison MacKenzie had several men vying for her attention in the book, but in the film she is partnered solely with Lewis Jackman. In the book, he dies in a horrific car crash soon after making love to Allison (she is in the car, too, but survives.) The book includes the continuing story of Betty Anderson and her small son and their relations with Lesley Harrington (her sons grandfather.) This entire story is left out of the film. Selena Cross has two love interests in the book. Neither one shows up in the film, though Nils, the ski instructor, has a few of the traits of one of them. In the novel, Constance and Michael Rossi share an earthy, sometimes randy relationship. They are much more conservative in the film with the character of Mike Rossi heavily altered from a sexually-charged Italian to a somewhat milquetoast gentleman. One huge change is the character of Ted Carters wife. In the book, shes a blue-blooded society girl named Jennifer and is presented as a sadomasochistic nymphomaniac with lots of cunning and deviousness. Needless to say, Roberta Carter (Teds mother) can hardly stand this and plots to murder her, only she winds up being killed herself. In the film, Ted marries a young girl behind his mothers back and she hates her for that and for her other flaw - shes Italian! She is named Rafaella (no doubt to accommodate the actors playing Ted and Raffaella who were married in real life and the wife an Italian with a noticeable accent.) In the finished film, there is never any indication that foul play will occur between the ladies, despite their hatred for one another. However, early print ads for the film refer to Roberta Carters plans to murder her daughter-in-law and the trailer features the Carter house engulfed in flames. So somewhere along the line (after filming was completed) it was decided to abandon the whole murder plot entirely and just end with the Town Hall meeting. Also present in the book, but absent from the film, are the characters of Selenas brother Joey, Allisons friend Stephanie and a famed actress called Rita Moore.
c.		While handing out daily assignments for plainclothes duty the roll call sergeant mentions the names of the two real-life police officers whose work the film is based on, "Mulhearn and Tessitore".
d.		One of over 700 Paramount Productions, filmed between 1929 and 1949, which were sold to MCA/Universal in 1958 for television distribution, and have been owned and controlled by Universal ever since.
