Talk:The Ice Storm (film)

message: Whoever wrote the plot outline needs to turn down their Judgmental knob, which is clearly set in the upper reaches right now.  Just because Paul smokes weed, he's hardly a 'drug abuser'.  Likewise, I do not care that the author of this piece thinks that the kids aren't 'well-adjusted'.  Ben and Janey's affair is also very far from 'torrid' - it's as enervated and world-weary as most of the other relationships in this film.  Likewise, please leave out comments like saying that the parents' behaviour is 'inappropriate'.  Comments like that are inappropriate in what's supposed to be an encyclopedia article, not a guidebook on why people shouldn't behave like the characters in this movie.  I will make changes to reflect my comments unless anyone can tell me why I shouldn't.  Lexo 15:21, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The banner on this talk page states that this article is part of Chinese cinema. However, clicking said link goes to a page that states the project is about Chinese-language films; this film is in the English language. Shouldn't it be part of American cinema task force? There's nothing Chinese about the film, apart from the director. Nietzsche 2 (talk) 23:44, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

message: If I want a scene by scene scenario, I can watch the movie.  I suppose if I want to learn how they managed to schedule filming during an ice storm, I'd have to rent the DVD? 68.164.35.42 (talk) 05:32, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Uh, and so, what about the ICE storm? 

message: Did this film serve as inspiration for John Cusack's film, The Ice Harvest?
The similarity between their names imply a connection.    216.99.201.135 (talk) 06:09, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
