thread_title:  How long is <i>The Story of the Kelly Gang</i>? 

message: Hello, 
I'm working on an assignment for a college mass communications class, our first assignment is to critique an article and present our thoughts to the talk page. The page looks good so far and will make a good jumping off point for future expansion. I do think the article could be improved with the addition of some more info on modern feature film and more detail on the expansion and rise of film. Maybe talk about how the concept of a feature has changed over time, I know in the U.S. for instance early movie theaters were common criminal hangouts. The movie industry started to change the content of it's films to attract more general audiences, I'm sure there are lots of other details like this that have far reaching consequences throughout film history and connect to the industry today. we could also talk about production techniques and the changes and improvements made over time, and maybe look in to how the corpritization of the industry has changed the meaning of the term over time or it might not have had any effect. maybe I'm getting a bit ahead of myself. I am looking forward to working with the community over the coming months.

thread_title: New Additions

message: "Defined by length, the first dramatic feature film was the Australian 60-minute film The Story of the Kelly Gang (1906)."  Except the article indicates that a length of just over 40 minutes can be considered a feature and that there was a dramatic film of 44 minutes released three years prior.  128.151.71.16 (talk) 19:05, 2 March 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, and it says one sentence before that that there was a dramatic film produced months before that... Bywok! 22:44, 16 February 2021 (UTC)
thread_title: First dramatic feature

message: In the header, it states that most feature-length films are between 75 and 210 minutes. Those numbers feel very arbitrary, and there is no source.
In my experience, films over 3 hours are relatively rare, and films under 75 minutes are still relatively common. 'Between 1 and 3 hours' or 'Between 60 and 180 minutes' would make more sense to me, although I don't really care what the exact numbers are, I just care that they're chosen for a reason.

replies: text: I took the sentence out. It is not needed, and it should have a citation if we want to include it.  Cheers! Doctormatt (talk) 21:39, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
