Maybe you can help. I found a picture on google images that meets their fair use policy, but I have NO idea how to upload it. It's a screenshot though and is used for promotion.- User:Justicefilms

I gladly can, please link it. CTJF83 00:09, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry. User:Justicefilms will no longer be active as the username has been indefinitely blocked due to associating myself with an organization, even though I am the only member of said organization.
In any case, that's still the right link.

  • ... that Christopher Nolan shot a no-budget short film titled Doodlebug as a student at UCL? Source: "It's always fascinating watching major directors' earliest work, and Doodlebug is no different, a no budget, 3-minute film Christopher Nolan wrote, directed, shot and edited in 1997 while he was studying English Literature at UCL in London."

5x expanded by MikeOwen (talk). Self-nominated at 12:32, 23 July 2019 (UTC).[reply]

  • The article was expanded 5x on time, a QPQ has been provided, the hook fact is interesting and cited inline, and no close paraphrasing was found. My only concern is that the infobox says "The exact budget is unknown", but this does not appear in the article text, which instead says that the budget was "negligible". This will be good to go once the discrepancy is addressed. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:16, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Should be good to go then. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 09:27, 27 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Original release

[edit]

Do we know when this was first publicly and/or commercially shown? It's been confirmed to be a project he completed in 1997, and presumably was presented in his film class. The first reference says that it was classified and distributed in 1999, so the two questions are - was it released sometime in the 1997-1998 period at festivals/on TV, and if not, was it ever actually released in 1999 or was the classification just a formality?
