Talk:Dust Devil (film)

message: Try as I might, I cannot find the original cite for this quote.  It's used again and again in promotional material for the film and I suspect it may have originated with the director himself who has counted Tarkovsky as an influence.  One cite says a "viewer compared it to Tarvosky on Acid" while another says it was a "critic" who made the comparison and yet another says it was a "reviewer."  My money is on Stanley himself given his tendency towards self-praise.  I think the man is brilliant but if you listen to him talk during the supplemental material on Dust Devil, you'll see what I mean.  He's given to making these kinds of statements.Lisapollison 03:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

message: Does the article need that template at the start? I can't think of anything vital that's missing from the lede, and I don't think there are any rules (as opposed to guidelines) about how many paragraphs long ledes should be. Per$1$tenceofv1$1on (talk) 20:57, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
