Title: I'd Rather Be Rich
Content:  The Los Angeles Times praised the "strong cast" but said the script "lacks inspiration" and said "so little use is made of so many famous singing voices." Smight later said "it was not a particularly good script but it opened up a whole new life for me" as a director. He said the film got a good review from Time magazine, and a few days later walked past Hunter on the Universal lot. "He glanced at me sourly and then looked away without speaking," said Smight. "Obviously he had read Time Magazine. I had no doubt that I would never work for Mr. Hunter again. After all these years, the movie continues to play on television and the residuals flow freely into our household, thank God! In the years that followed, I never had to contend with a producer who insisted that I never change a line of dialogue."

Title: Time After Time (1979 film)
Content:  According to Meyer from the commentary track for the DVD and Blu-ray release of the film, the author of the novel presented Meyer with 55 pages of his unpublished novel and asked Meyer to critique his work. Meyer liked the premise and immediately optioned the story so he could write a screenplay based on the material and develop the story his own way. McDowell was attracted to the material because he was looking for something different from the sex and violence in Caligula, in which he played the title character. While preparing to portray Wells, McDowell obtained a copy of a 78 rpm recording of Wells speaking. McDowell was "absolutely horrified" to hear that Wells spoke in a high-pitched, squeaky voice with a pronounced Southeast London accent, which McDowell felt would have resulted in unintentional humor if he

Preminger would give her notes and she would disappear again, and this routine continued until the script was finished. Not wanting her name attached to work started by others, May insisted she did not want screen credit and used the pseudonym Esther Dale, the name of a Hollywood character actress, instead of her
