Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which famous British actor/actress did NOT have a small part in the film?

Answer: John Mills

 The other three were all featured on the planet Krypton. Trevor Howard was the council leader, Harry Andrews was second in command, and Susannah York was Jor-El's wife.
2. Marlon Brando got top billing for the film. Who received second billing?

Answer: Gene Hackman

 Brando got $1 million plus 10% of the gross, an astronomical sum for his 15 minutes of screen time, and one that paved the way for the exorbitant star salaries we see today.
3. Who does NOT make a cameo in the film?

Answer: TV "Superman", George Reeves

 The TV Lois Lane appears on the train the teenage Clark is trying to outrun. Rex Reed meets Lois and Clark outside of The Daily Planet building. Larry Hagman plays an Army Sergeant who attempts to revive Valerie Perrine. The TV "Superman" died many years ago.
4. On the first day Clark arrives in Metropolis, what good deed does Superman NOT do?

Answer: Stops a carjacking

 Part of what makes this a great film in my opinion. None of these scenes HAD to be included, but for the extra expense they really add much to the story.
5. Where does Miss Teschmacher's mother live?

Answer: Hackensack, NJ

 This is where the second missile was heading.
6. Which classic actor played Superman's Earth Father?

Answer: Glenn Ford

 Ford is best remembered in westerns such as "Jubal", "3:10 To Yuma", and "The Sheepman". He retired shortly afterward.
7. Which former child star played editor Perry White?

Answer: Jackie Cooper

 Cooper was one of "The Little Rascals".
8. What song is playing on the radio when Lois Lane stops for gas at the station that explodes?

Answer: "Give a Little Bit" by Supertramp

 I cannot help but think the "Supertramp" inclusion is an in-joke.
9. Where do Lex Luthor and the villains find the meteorite that fell to Earth from Krypton?

Answer: Addas Ababa

 Luthor was using the Kryptonite meteorite to get at Superman.
10. Which of these was a real credit at the end of the film?

Answer: Cheerios by General Mills

 Apparently General Mills paid a lot of money to include the scene where Clark's Earth Mother serves him a breakfast of Cheerios!
