message: Since I don't know how to add pictures to Wikipedia, could someone please find some screen caps from the film, that aren't copyright and post them on the page to imporve it. Thanks Movie-lover93 04:17, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pictures please? 

message: "The original 1994 American release was rated NC-17 for a chilling murder and some sexuality, while the 2002 Director's Cut was rated R for violence and sexual content." Is there anything functionally different about those two descriptions? Recommend revision.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.215.188.55 (talk) 07:03, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

message: "It received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay" I thought it was based on the play 'Daughters of Heaven', which doesn't seem to have a single mention on Wiki.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.154.147.28 (talk) 00:30, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

message: Pauline is 14 at the beginning of the timeline of the film, a fact stated clearly by her mother when she discovers that Pauline and "John" have had a nighttime meeting in Pauline's room.  Someone keeps changing her age to 16, which is not correct.   18:39, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

message: In 1997 Winslet starred as Rose in Titanic, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture.
In 2003-present, Lynskey stars as Rose on the very popular TV series Two and a Half Men. 
I'm not sure this is notable enough to be put in the article...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.247.244.120 (talk) 00:22, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

message: Do not put the DVD running time into the info box. It does not belong there. It is already noted in the DVD section at the end of the article. 109 minutes is NOT the "original" running time, but rather the running time of the Region 1 DVD release only. The film was 99 minutes in the theatre, 99 minutes on laserdisc, on VHS, and on the 1st DVD release. Then a so-called "uncut version" was released in the No. America market, and ran 109 minutes. The 99 minute, original version is now streaming on Hulu Plus and on Netflix. There is only one, anomalous 109 min. version, and this information needs to be kept in its proper place. In general, the info box should have a minimum of information in it, and only the most important. Keeping those boxes tidy and consise is an ongoing effort on WP right now. 
Also, it is customary to avoid categorizing a film at all, and certainly "crime-fantasy" is an opinion, not a fact. Even calling a film a drama is usually avoided. It should be left as it is, merely a film. 
To AbsoluteGleek92: You Wikilinked the same names multiple times, when one only does it once, the first time they are mentioned. We also avoid Wikilinking more than is absolutely necessary, as it makes the article unreadable when every other word is in blue. I restored your Wikilink to The Simpsons, but any other links should be carefully considered before you do them again. You also put in lots of unnecesary things like "previously unknown Kate Winslet" when the above paragraph states clearly that both girls were making their film debuts. We don't need to know to what film this lost the Oscar to, either. Excess verbiage is discouraged. Please consider carefully before making any more edits to this page, and always read the article in its entirety first, to avoid repeating things that are already clear, or completely covered in another section. Thank you.--TEHodson 05:01, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

message: That change to 13 years old appears to have been either an error or vandalism by an anonymous editor. The film doesn't change her age to 13.--TEHodson 22:39, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Perry born in October 1938; the murder occurred in June 1954, which makes her 15. The movie doesn't have to be accurate, but if it differs from such detail a citation or at least explanation is needed.-gadfium 19:27, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

message: To BlueJay Young: As the Fourth World is complex and evolves throughout the film, it's best that it's described in full, not merely called an afterlife. The fact that they are able to experience and enter it while demonstrably still alive rebukes that interpretation, so I've restored the fuller text which explains that. Also, you added an awful lot of words, taking us way beyond the limit. Thanks.--TEHodson 07:46, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Rebukes?  Perhaps you meant refutes.  A dictionary is a writer's friend.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.144.64.89 (talk) 07:09, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
