1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising (2007)?
a.		Was filmed on board the USS Kearsarge (CVA 33) while on a Show The Flag cruise around Asia.
b.		Alexander Ludwig also plays the role of twin brother Tom, but isnt credited for this role.
c.		Although he played the part of Lt. jg Doug Roberts on Broadway, Henry Fonda was not the first choice to recreate the role for the film version (the producers felt the 50 year old Fonda too old to play the role). The producers first wanted Marlon Brando, but he was committed to another project at the time and could not get out of it. Then the producers turned to Tyrone Power. But director John Ford insisted on Fonda - they had made several successful films together - and would not direct the film without him. Since the producers needed the director with 6 Academy Awards to helm the film, they gave in to him. Ironically, once filming began, Ford and Fonda saw eye to eye on almost nothing. Fonda had played the character on Broadway for 2 years, and felt he knew the character inside out. Ford had other ideas and on his set, you saw things his way or you saw the door. Things came to a head when, during a meeting with producers, Fonda and Ford to clear the air, Ford sucker punched Fonda. Ford left the production soon after (Fords war-related health reasons were given as the official explanation). Mervyn LeRoy, and later Joshua Logan, the director of the Broadway play, took over directing duties and finished the film. The decision was made to keep Fords and Leroys name in the final credits.
d.		The final film of veteran director W.S. Van Dyke. He was dying of cancer while shooting it, and committed suicide not long after its release.

The only common character between the first two books is Merriman Lyon.
