Page numbers[edit]

Do you have page numbers for the seven references of the Leni Riefenstahl book? They should also be split up since they likely aren't all from the same page. gren グレン 01:51, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So done. Ekem (talk) 14:52, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Guiness record?[edit]

I don't know about the criterion used here, but doesn't Destino have a much longer production time? Shelby Davis (talk) 03:00, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

While Destino has a longer production time, it is a 7 min cartoon, not a feature film; clarified now in the article. Ekem (talk) 14:44, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

POV[edit]

This article seems incredible biased in favor of Riefenstahl. It praises her lavishly, but barely mentions her work as a Nazi propagandist. It touches on the Roma/Sinti issue, but does not explain it very well and does not mention that Riefenstahl lost the defamation lawsuit. In fact, it seems to imply that Gladitz was the one in the wrong. The article is in need of serious improvement in terms of style and to make it NPOV.

German word: tiefland means: deepland in English, not: "lowlands"...[edit]

1. is there any background on how the English translation of "Tiefland" came about - mayhap it had a differing translation when it first came out?

2. why is this selfsame filmtitle of "Tiefland" seemingly untranslated on the Dutch-speaking wiki?

3. Note, "diep" is the Dutch word for English "deep" and German "tief"

4. I bet the film Tiefland had a differing English translation in it's fore-war script, but then got overset with the "lowlands" translation post-war for political reasons. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.121.252.114 (talk) 21:31, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
