Talk:Lawman (film)

message: :Image:Lawman.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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: The last two sentences of the plot synopsis seem rather strange and un-Wikipedia-like to me.
 
First, "The action in this film is dry and tersely authentic." I don't understand what the "dry" is trying to convey. According to my dictionary, "dry" means "dull and uninteresting". Did the author perhaps intend something more like, "The action in this film is matter-of-fact and tersely authentic."
 
Second, "There are no pretty cowboys or pretences of morality and the ending has the resolution of a rattle snake bite." What is a "pretty cowboy"? The word “pretences” is misspelled (assuming American English is used for an American western movie). And what on earth is "the resolution of a rattle snake bite" supposed to mean? (Not to mention that "rattlesnake" is one word, not two.)
 
I don't know the rules for editing Wikipedia articles, but maybe someone could rewrite the last two sentences of the synopsis along the lines of:
 
"The action in this film is straightforward and tersely authentic. The ending is abrupt and unemotional." 2601:600:A27F:E1D0:B03F:B818:10C8:DBFF (talk) 07:13, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
