Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which song opens the film?

Answer: Seasons of Love

"Seasons of Love" was the opening song to the second act of the stage musical, but the film opens with the cast standing on a stage singing "Seasons of Love". "Seasons of Love" is also one of only two songs in the film to feature lines by all eight of the main characters.
2. In the song "You'll See", who sings the line "Happy Birthday Jesus"?

Answer: Roger

Roger says this line sarcastically to Benny during their argument about the protest. In the original stage musical Collins sings this line, but due to the change of timeline for the film, Roger sings it instead.
3. Which one of these songs is NOT in the final cut of the film?

Answer: Halloween

Although all of "Goodbye Love" is not shown in the final film, the first half is still there. "Halloween" is the only song listed that isn't included at all.
4. Is Roger playing the guitar while singing "One Song Glory"?

Answer: No

Despite playing his guitar prior to breaking into "One Song Glory", and holding it during the song, Roger is never actually playing the guitar while singing the song.
5. How many times does Mimi's candle get either blown out, or put out, during the period in the film between the start of the song "One Song Glory" and the end of the song "Light My Candle"?

Answer: 4

1) Prior to coming into Roger's apartment, Mimi blows it out.
2) Mimi blows it out after Roger tells her about April.
3) Mimi blows it out right before coming back in looking for her stash.
4) Roger puts it out with his finger right after picking Mimi's stash up from the ground.
6. What is Roger's late girlfriend's last name?

Answer: Ericcson

This is listed at the top of her HIV detection report in one of the flashbacks during "One Song Glory", but never revealed in the Broadway show. There is no solid evidence that original stage writer Jonathan Larson intended her name to be Ericcson. It is presumed that this is decision made by either Director Chris Columbus or Screenwriter Stephen Chobosky.
7. Out of the group at the Life Support meeting, who announces to the group that their T-cells are low?

Answer: Gordon

When the group introduces themselves, it is revealed that the person next to Paul is Steve, and then Gordon is next to him. Gordon is the long time member of the AIDS support group. Gordon's condition is quickly declining, but he's still living positive.
8. During the song "Another Day", which one of these characters is NOT seen calling up to Roger from the street?

Answer: Maureen

Near the end of the song, Mimi, Mark, Collins and Angel are all calling up from the street to Roger, who is on his balcony. According to the group, (although this it is mostly Mimi who says this), Roger isn't living his last days the way he should. He wastes away up in his apartment, when he should really be down on the street having fun with his friends.
9. What are Maureen's parents' names?

Answer: Eddie and Nancy

Joanne's parents say their names while introducing them at the engagement party. This is also something that is assumed to be a creative addition to the characters by the filmmakers.
10. What is the subtitle to Mark's film "Today 4 U"?

Answer: Proof Positive

This is underneath the main title when he first starts up the projector at the end of the film, while they are all singing "Finale B". Mark's film ends up being a nice tribute to all of their friends who they have lost to HIV and AIDS, especially their close friend Angel.
