Restoring section on differences between the book and the film

[edit]

I have restored the section on the differences between the book and the film based on [explanation of what is not "original research" according to Wikipedia policy]:

A book, short story, film, or other work of fiction is a primary source for any article or topic regarding that work. Anything that can be observed by a reasonable person simply by reading the work itself, without interpretation, is not original research, but is reliance upon a primary source. This would include direct quotes or non interpretative summaries, publication dates, and any other patent information that can be observed from the work. For example, if there are multiple versions of a particular story, and one version does not have a particular character, or has extra characters, that is clear simply by reading or watching the work. The fact that one would have to read or watch the whole thing does not make the matter original research. The work is verifiable, even if it takes more time than flipping to a single page.
The same is true for non-fiction works: You may use a book like The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks as a primary source for a description of what the book is about.

Congratulations!

[edit]

This article is #2 in longest plot summaries for a movie on Wikipedia! http://www.slate.com/articles/arts/culturebox/2014/06/what_is_the_most_detailed_wikipedia_movie_plot_summary_of_all_time.html

Probably not a good thing, length means it is not concise per guidelines on writing a plot summary http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_write_a_plot_summary . Let's see where the article is simply recreating the work or being wordy rather than providing relevant information. Jabba in the pit (talk) 06:02, 28 June 2014 (UTC) jabba in the pit[reply]
