Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What year does "Down With Love" take place?

Answer: 1962

When the movie opens and zooms in on a birds-eye view of Manhattan, the narrator says, "The place...New York City. The time...now, 1962."

2. When Barbara arrives in New York and meets Vicki for the first time, how long does Vicki tell her they have until Barbara's book comes out?

Answer: 1 week

They have a lot to do in one week, including the photo shoot for the book jacket and an interview with Catcher Block for "Know Magazine". Of course, the interview gets postponed many times.

3. Which is NOT one of the three levels of becoming a "Down With Love" girl?

Answer: Quit your job

The three levels are: 1 - Abstain from men altogether, 2 - Take on new challenges, 3 - Become active in the workplace. Barbara's book encourages women to have "sex a-la-carte": sex without love.

4. Catch says he hasn't worn garters since when?

Answer: Nixon conceded

Nixon conceded in 1960, which means Catch has been wearing his "new age" lycra-spandex socks for 2 years.

5. After Catcher Block arrives back from Miami, he meets his new secretary, Sally.

Answer: True

Apparently, Catch loses his secretaries often. He loses Sally when she passes out after she overhears and conversation about Catch's socks - which she thinks is about something else!

6. What is the name of the Go-Go Dancer Club that Catch and Peter go to?

Answer: Astronette Club

Those Go-Go dancers outfits are another great example of the wonderful costume design in the film. Daniel Orlandi was the costume designer, and described making the film as his dream project.

7. "Down With Love" is shown as increasing in popularity in which countries?

Answer: USA, England, France, China, Russia

"Down With Love" girls are appearing all over the globe!

8. Chapter Eight of "Down With Love" describes the Worst Kind of Man: A man who changes women as often as they change their _________.

Answer: shirts

Barbara dicusses this chapter while she is on a TV game show. It is also revealed that the man she is describing is Catcher Block!

9. Which musical do Barbara and Zip see on their first date?

Answer: Camelot

Catch and Gwendolyn also "see" this same musical earlier in the film.

10. Who does Catch have a picture of in his bachelor pad?

Answer: His parents

Vicki: "Are those your parents?"

Peter: "No, those are Catch's parents."

Vicki: "Why do you have a picture of Catch's parents?"

11. What song is played when Catch and Barbara are simultaneously preparing for their big date?

Answer: Fly Me to the Moon

Astrud Giberto sings the song when Barbara is getting ready and the song swtiches to Frank Sinatra when Catch is getting ready. Wonderful montage!

12. Complete the quote by Peter: "Where's my geisha? I need my _______."

Answer: shoes

David Hyde Pierce is so subtly hilarous in this role as Peter MacMannus. He has a bunch of other one-liners in the movie as well that catch you off guard.

13. What is the slogan of Barbara's new magazine "Now"?

Answer: The New Magazine for Women in the Now!

You can see the slogan on the side of the billboard advertisement for "Now". The combination of all the know's, now's, new's, and no's in this movie is dizzying!

14. What percentage of a pay cut would Catcher Block be taking if he worked as Barbara Novak's secretary?

Answer: 96.6%

Catcher knew that Barbara would have to see him if he applied for her secretary position because "Now Magazine" is an equal opportunity employer.

Answer: Barbara Novak-Block

Before the "Here's to Love" video during the end credits, the announcer says her married name, Barbara Novak-Block. Hope you liked the quiz, and don't forget to rate it!
