1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Washington Merry-Go-Round (1932)?
a.		The screenplay for this movie was mentioned in the same June 1985 "New York Magazine" article about Emilio Estevez and his then-frequent costars that coined the term "The Brat Pack" for that group of actors. At that time, the screenplays title was "Clear Intent."
b.		Before being attached as the director, Clint Eastwood originally asked his friend Don Siegel to direct the film as he personally felt that he wasnt capable of directing an action film with dangerous stunts like this one had. After a long positive talk with Siegel, Eastwood took the reigns as director.
c.		The title is taken from a popular 1931 best selling book, "Washington Merry-Go-Round," by Robert Sharon Allen and Drew Pearson. Columbia bought the rights to the title only, and then hired Maxwell Anderson to write a fictionalized story about corruption in Washington, D.C..
d.		The theme song to the movie, "Hello (I Love You)" (not to be confused with the similarly-titled classic song by The Doors) is a rare one-off song by former Pink Floyd frontman Roger Waters, whose songs are usually part of concept albums. Waters worked with composer Howard Shore, so that the songs melody is a leitmotif in the film, as well as dovetailing well with the rest of the films score. Waters commented, "I think together weve come up with a song that captures the themes of the movie - the clash between humanitys best and worst instincts, and how a childs innocence can win the day." Incidentally, the film touches on themes that Waters album Amused to Death was concerned with, while the songs lyrics reference Waters Pink Floyd works Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall, as well as Waters solo album Radio KAOS.
