Content dispute[edit]

There are multiple sources stating that Director Scott Cooper read a New York Times article about Braddock mayor John Fetterman, which served as inspiration for the film's setting; see the Pittsburgh Business Times [1] [2], Deadline, WPXI, and Cineblend. There have been continued assertions made by User:72.77.53.216 that Cooper's interest in setting the film in Braddock was due to revitalization efforts by artist Latoya Ruby Frazier. Although this artist is originally from the town of Braddock, I have seen no reliable source which indicates that she has anything to do with the setting of this film. These claims are unverifiable, a violation of Wikipedia's biography of living persons policy, and seem to be patently false information. WP:HOAX dissolve ^talk 17:56, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Historical and Contextual Background[edit]

This film is rich in American History, alluding to "susbstance" problems and "collections violence" that goes back to 1791-1794 in the earliest Post Revolutionary years of the United States, focused on the Alleghany County. In the development section, references to Westsylvania, the Rust Belt and David Bradford's Whiskey Rebellion are all missing. Wikicommons images should be used for this purpose.

Carrie Blast furnace image from WikiCommons is missing.  CFJan3rd2007 021.jpg

Abraham Kirkpatrick, at the Battle of Bower Hill in 1794, is alluded to by a shot in the movie of a rusted Kirkpatrick Avenue street sign. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.65.121.40 (talk) 10:26, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
