Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pan (film)
We should improve, not demolish, stubs on subjects of historical importance. Here's a 1997 Michael Wilmington review in the ''Chicago Tribune'': "A fine film and a real discovery."http://articles.chicagotribune.com/1997-02-21/entertainment/9702210255_1_knut-hamsun-pride-and-shame-nine-films-screening/2  Norwegian film expert :no:Gunnar Iversen describes the film as being "important in Norwegian film culture".http://ntnu-no.academia.edu/GunnarIversen/Papers/581876/The_Art_of_Hunger_Hamsun_Film_and_Modernity UCLA professor Arne Lunde discussed the film in his article "Knut Hamsum at the Movies in Transnational Contexts."http://septentrio.uit.no/index.php/nordlit/article/viewFile/688/654  Hamsun himself apparently didn't like the film so much, according to Donald Dewey's article in the ''Scandinavian Review'' ("If the public liked ''Pan'', the author himself wasn’t too impressed. Reached by telephone by a reporter for his reaction to the screen adaptation, the fleetingly personable Hamsun snapped “I don’t understand film and I am in bed with the flu,” and hung up."http://www.amscan.org/pdf/SR.Fall10-Fall-p18-36.pdf, p.30.  There's more potential sources hidden behind "snippets" in GBookshttp://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&biw=1680&bih=892&tbs=bkv%3Aa&tbm=bks&q=Pan+Hamsun+Schwenzen&oq=Pan+Hamsun+Schwenzen&aq=f&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=12&gs_upl=2432l7079l0l8346l3l3l0l0l0l0l101l298l2.1l3l0&gs_l=serp.12...2432l7079l0l8347l3l3l0l0l0l0l101l298l2j1l3l0, including something in a ''1923'' issue of the ''Scandinavian Review''.  Mention may be appropriate here of , , and .I do think the article could (eventually?) be retitled to Pan (1922 film), although according to the Pan#Film|DAB page there apparently aren't yet articles on the other films based on Hamsun's novel
