Jerichow (film)

[edit]
  • ... that the German drama film Jerichow was nominated for the 2009 German Film Prize in both the Best Feature Film and Best Director categories?

Created/expanded by SL93 (talk), Dr. Blofeld (talk). Nominated by SL93 (talk) at 23:26, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

  • I've changed "Jethrow" to "Jerichow" in the hook, as it looked like a strange typo to me. If "Jethrow" is correct for some reason, that needs to be added to the article. MANdARAX  XAЯAbИAM 00:43, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
  • That quote from Ebert is much too long. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:46, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
    • Dr. Blofeld added that. It originally just said that Roger Ebert gave the film a positive review. I changed it. SL93 (talk) 15:01, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
      • A small quote is okay... just not one that is a third of the length of the article. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:00, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
        • I added in a small quote. SL93 (talk) 23:08, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
        • I have also sourced the citation need to The Boston Globe. In source - "Instead of a beautiful young FEMME FATALE married to a much older man, we have a beautiful, not-so-young ex-con married to a rich, hard-working and enterprising Turkish immigrant." SL93 (talk) 23:27, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
          • Alright, although I note that PW has a clearer indication that it is based on the novel. Also, reading the sources (no close paraphrasing found) it seems that a couple things, such as the role of poverty and that Ebert gave it 3/4 stars, may be a good way to expand the article (I tend to exclude the plot in length limits for my own articles, although it's not a DYK rule so I can't push that on you) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:33, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
            • I was thinking about adding about the poverty, but I thought that would go into the plot and not critical detail. I don't like long plot sections even though I consider them as a part of the length limit. SL93 (talk) 23:40, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
  • A themes section? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:33, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
    • I might add it, but that isn't a DYK requirement. If this was going to be a Good Article, that would be understandable. SL93 (talk) 00:36, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
      • I meant for the poverty. I will, reluctantly, pass this as is since it meets the criteria, although I am unhappy with the length. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:46, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
