Talk:Tucker: The Man and His Dream

message: The description of the plot sounds more like a one-sided speech; needs expansion and "neutralization."

message: :Image:Tuckerposter.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.

thread_title: Editing changes

message: I just made an edit from the plot synopsis that indicated that Tucker was never able to realize his dream. This is incorrect... here's a snippit from the transcript of the film:
"The Tucker Motor Company's dead. They'll never be."
"...It's the idea that counts, Abe... and the dream".
Anyway, just wanted to give a little context. Linuxbeak (The cake is a lie!) 02:46, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The dream was to have a car in production that rivaled the success of the Big Three automobile manufacturers. Tucker's valiant efforts were to be abortive and his company never realized its potential. FWiW, BRD. Discussion needs to continue. Bzuk (talk) 04:15, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed "never able to realize his dream" - rationale 

message: In the DVD version (Paramount Widescreen DVD collection) which I viewed yesterday, Dean Stockwell (as Howard Hughes) WAS credited as a member of the cast. Therefore this article as written would appear to be incorrect.
On the other hand, the article is somewhat incomplete in that it left out the detail that Lloyd Bridges was uncredited, at least in the DVD version I saw.  (See also IMDB list of credits at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096316/fullcredits ) Msn1947 (talk) 13:39, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The article says that in the movie PT was supported by his large extended family.  Is this so?  Or was it basically his nuclear family of procreation?  The only support for the claim lists members of his nuclear family.  Some of the people in the movie might have been members of his extended family, but I didn't notice any-one supporting him who fit that description in my casual viewing of the movie.

thread_title:  large extended family 

message: it would be nice if there were a section on how close the movie sticks to reality.  The Wikipedia article on PT gives a number of facts that are contrary to what was shownin the movie. Kdammers (talk) 05:29, 22 December 2021 (UTC)
