Working Titles

As some people may know, many of Hollywood's greatest blockbuster films over the past 100 years, were reeased under a title far different from their working titles.
Here are some of the more noteworthy:

1) Ben-Hur--- WT (working title): A Jew Finds Christ

2) White Heat---WT: I Want My Mommy!!

3) Gentleman's Agreement---WT: A Jew Like Me

4) Casablanca---WT: I Love You Ilsa, But There's Something About a Frenchman in Uniform!

5)Shadow of a Doubt---WT: Uncle Bonkers

6) All About Eve---WT: Portrait of a Back-Stabbing Bitch

7) Rain Man---WT: Everybody Loves Rain Man

8) Psycho---WT: You Can Only Call Me Master Bates So Long!

9) The Manchurian Candidate ---WT: Ya Think It's Easy Being Three Years Younger Than Your Mother?!"

10) In the Heat of the Night---WT: They Call Me MISTER BOY!!
