  • Both articles are newly written, sourced throughout. AGF on offline sources, but the hook fact about the first assisted suicide on film is available via Google Books. The Variety article and others appear to be offline, which is fine. I trust you. Articles appear to be written neutrally. Two QPQ are provided. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:35, 31 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]


Assisted suicide?

[edit]

"In mercy, he draws his gun and shoots her". That doesn't seem like "assisted suicide", it's mercy killing. There is a difference. Minturn (talk) 02:26, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Stack and Bowman, specifically describe it as an assisted suicide. Variety report describes it as I wrote in the plot summary. I haven't actually seen the film, so its hard to say... I would imagine Stack and Bowman would be more accurate, as they likely viewed the film footage in arriving at their assessment.4meter4 (talk) 03:06, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
