Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who directed "The Deer Hunter"?

Answer: Michael Cimino

His best film and one of the best movies ever made.

2. What is the favorite beer?

Answer: Rolling Rock

People from Pennsylvania love their Rolling Rock, which is made there.

3. What is the bit of advice that Nick (Christopher Walken) gives Steven (John Savage) on his wedding night?

Answer: "Hang loose."

Steven is worried because he has never slept with Angela and it's his wedding night. Stan (John Cazale) has apparently slept with Angela, and is whispering about it to anyone who will listen, as well as the fact that she is pregnant, but by whom? Nick is trying to get him to relax.

4. Where is the very first scene in the movie?

Answer: the steel mill

This scene sets the atmosphere of this little town in Pennsylvania that they love. This is their home.

5. What does Axel dip his twinkie in?

Answer: mustard

There is so much going on with the characters by the time they go up to the mountains to go deer hunting after the reception, and before Vietnam. They know each other so well. Stan causes all kinds of problems and fun for his buddies here.

6. Where does Nick propose to Linda (Meryl Streep)?

Answer: He proposes at the reception after she catches the bouquet.

Linda answers "yes" right away and Nick laughs with surprise. They both want to laugh and cry at the same time with all that is happening and fear of what's to come.

7. When Nick says to Michael (Robert De Niro), "What are you doing, trying to look like a prince?" What is Michael's reply?

Answer: "What do you mean, trying?"

Michael is always in control and prepared, while Nick is still polishing his shoes.

8. What does Nick say he likes the most about deer hunting?

Answer: "I like the trees, the way the trees are."

Michael and Nick talk about their town in the trailer before the wedding and before Vietnam.

9. What is thrown at Stan that he eats?

Answer: bologna

Stan with no socks and no boots!

10. When you first see Michael in Vietnam, what is he doing?

Answer: He is pretending to sleep.

Such a shock to go from the scene before of John (George Dzundza) playing piano in the bar to Vietnam, and all that is to come.

11. Who is singing in the choir at the wedding?

Answer: John

Drinking and being wild before the wedding and then all cleaned up and singing in church!

12. What does the banner say over the stage in the reception hall?

Answer: Serving God and Country Proudly

I'll never forget the three huge pictures of Nick, Michael and Steven hanging up in the reception hall.

13. What is the name of the bar where they hang out?

Answer: Welch's Lounge

This was not easy to find in the movie and never said.

14. Why does Linda move into the trailer?

Answer: Because her Dad is abusive.

Her Dad is obviously very ill, a drug addict, an alcoholic or a combination. Not a good situation. After that day, I imagined that Linda came to check on her father, but only when absolutely necessary.

15. Who says, "Stan, it's no use."?

Answer: Nick

Nick says this in the locker room at the steel mill when they are leaving the steel mill and Stan is looking at himself in the mirror.
