Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Cover of United States DVD release.
Author or copyright owner	First Run Features owns the copyright. Claimed as fair use regardless.
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	DVD packaging.
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	The Company of Strangers
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	Main infobox, to serve as the primary means of visual identification at the top of the article dedicated to the work in question.
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	n.a.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	Because the image is poster art, a form of product packaging or service marketing, the entire image is needed to identify the product or service, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. As Film DVD cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the same artwork or poster would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	n.a.
Other information	I scanned this cover from the licensed DVD release. Zzorse 15:31, 11 March 2007 (UTC) Though this image is subject to copyright, its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because: It's a low resolution copy of a Film Poster / VHS or DVD Cover. It doesn't limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the film in any way, in fact, it may encourage sales. Because of the low resolution, copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the artwork/image. The image is itself a subject of discussion in the article or used in the infobox thereof. The image is significant because it was used to promoted a notable film. Derived from a digital capture (photo/scan) of the Film Poster/ VHS or DVD Cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party).
