Talk:The White Countess

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A rather confusing and plodding film. The pieces don't come together. Also, the Europeans in Shanghai were more or less left alone in 1937 while the Japanese and Chinese warred. Only after January 1942 were the Europeans interned. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.92.135.36 (talk) 02:33, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:White countess.jpg

[edit]

Image:White countess.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

While looking for information about the film I found two sources listing the budget of the film. Before the film began in 2013 Variety said the budget was (sic)"$16 million" (note $USD).[1] The film was released in the US in Nov/Oct 2005, it was not released in the UK until March 2006. In March 2006 The Guardian newspaper published a "report from the set" and stated the budget was "$30m (£17m)".[2] (Obviously filming was long finished and the report from the set was only belatedly published when the film was released in the UK, but I'm spelling it all out in detail here to hopefully avoid any confusion.)

I have included only the higher later figure in the Infobox, but I have also attempted to more present both figures in the Production section. It was clearly a mixup or oversight because of the confusion between US Dollars and British Pounds, and I hope readers can clearly understand from the way I have presented it, but I was also trying to be very careful to avoid any original research. -- 109.78.221.8 (talk) 20:26, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
