Talk:The Wind and the Lion

message: Some bits of this film's soundtrack sound just like the horn-based Klingon theme used in the Star Trek films; could Jerry Goldsmith have recycled his own work there? Kelvingreen 17:56, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would never accuse Goldsmith of "recycling" his music, but you make an interesting point: his "Raisuli's fanfare" (not necessarily the real title) does sounds like a downturning version of the Klingon leitmotif from Star Trek: The Motion Picture. The pacing is similar. But.... ;)  David Spalding Talk/Contribs 21:25, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: a simmilar film that i search

message: I'm changing the unsourced studio info in the lead, which said:
::The film was the first co-production between Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (which managed U.S. distribution through United Artists) and Columbia Pictures (which managed international distribution). Coincidentally, Columbia's current parent company Sony Pictures Entertainment currently owns some of MGM, although the U.S. rights to this film are now with Warner Bros./Turner Entertainment.
The co-production aspect is quite unlikely, as the credits only list MGM, and major studio co-productions then were very rare. The first was The Towering Inferno in 1974, and the next was most likely William Friedkin's  Sorcerer in 1977.
MGM was using United Artists as distributor at the time. Columbia only did the non-U.S. distribution. - Gothicfilm (talk) 23:26, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Requests for arbitration/Sortan/Proposed decision

message: Three points:
#I have served my time. Like any editor who has developed a pattern of editing in a particular editor, I found it difficult to completely switch off and have made some mistakes. For this, I have suffered two blocks - one of four hours (despite not breaking the terms of the ruling given to me, but apparently breaking the summary on the requests for admin enforcement page, which I hadn't seen and hadn't been brough to my attention), and one of four days for one edit, which I realised I had made in error straight away (but by then it was too late (when you have a wikistalker, no error goes unpunished!). The evidence is clear that the earlier remedy is working. There is no need to make any further ruling against me.
#It may interest the Committee to know my thoughts on the matter. I no longer see the point of my earlier activities. I have always argued we should prefer BC and AD notation solely because it is overwhelmingly the most common notation, and the only one generally understood. Although I still think this is a good principle, it is clear that for the foreseeable future it is a view that will never gain consensus, and so there is little point in pushing the issue. As with other issues of linguistic preference, Wikipedia will swing back and forth between various notations, but (absent a general external force preventing or enforcing change - which ArbCom, and probably the community at large, is against) it will flow in the direction of the most common usage - not because of any nefarious reasons, but simply because people tend to edit using words and phrases they are most familiar with. Of course, if CE/BCE notation does become more popular on a worldwide level, we should use it more frequently, and we will - and I have always said that that should be the case. Similarly, if its already low level of popularity dwindles further, then its usage on Wikipedia will dwindle too. I fully accept there is no need to fight this - editors editing naturally will keep a balance, jguk 20:52, 13 January 2006 (UTC)

I heard this as a child. My parents said it. But the joke is that it is repeated over and over: "Do what?" "Remind me of a man!" "What man?" etc.
I suspect this is not original in this movie, but comes from vaudeville. If wikipedia thinks it is notable, let's track it down.Wastrel Way (talk) Eric Wastrel Way (talk) 00:53, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

message: Wagner's music is used in this movie and then perverted for humorous effect. When Cary Grant appears as the knight in shining armor, we hear Siegfried's theme ... I think from the "Rhine Journey" but I may be wrong. When Shirley Temple is shown up to the apartment of Richard Nugent, we hear a bit of the Prelude to Act 1 of Lohengrin, which then turns into lighthearted movie music.

Talk:The Bishop's Wife

message: Regarding the denomination's name: "Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America" had fallen into disuse in all but official documents by the mid-20th Century; however, it remains its official name. "The Episcopal Church" became its official alternate name in 1967 (not 1979). Although "Episcopal Church in the United States of America" is not an official name, it is used for practical purposes to differentiate it from the Scottish Episcopal Church and others. If it clarifies things I can reword the reference.Rockhopper10r 19:45, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: Frankly, after watching the film I doubt that they went to any location to shoot this thing. Virtually all the scenes that appear to be outdoors were actually made inside a studio. All the snow is fake (there is never any visible breath in all the "outdoor" scenes). It is quite possible that the scenes with the cars were shot on a "New York Street"-set on a studio lot in LA.Drow69 (talk) 13:30, 26 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Minnesota? 

message: An editor continues to attempt to add original research about the denomination of the Bishop in this film.  This has no relevance to the plot.  Perhaps it could reference that the Bishop is Protestant, since that would explain to Catholics how he has a wife, but any further determination is supposition on the part of the editor.  Onel5969 (talk) 16:39, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it is safe to assume the Bishop is Episcopalian. Although other Protestant denominations have bishops and allow clergy to marry (such as Methodists and Lutherans), the boy choir tradition in American churches is mainly in Episcopal churches, being one step removed from The Church of England. In addition, when I worked briefly at St. George’s Episcopal parish in New York, I was told a similar story about their stained glass window of St. George and the Dragon to what Mrs. Hamilton suggests in the film, so I’ve always assumed the movie version was based on that. 184.103.163.170 (talk) 22:15, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:People Will Talk

message: I believe this movie was completely misunderstood by American critics who seem to have forgotten that it was a West German movie written by Curt Götz which had its meaning completely transposed when made into an American film. More needs to be made of the origin of the film in its West German roots of 1950 if we are to see the whole point of the drama. It is a few years after the war during which doctors allowed Jews to die in work and death camps and carried out experiments on inmates. Nazi doctors were not seriously prosecuted after the war and many had to hide their past which has overtones in Noah's character. Pregnant girls who had had one night flings with soldiers or with young lads killed in the war are reflected in the young Deborah. Then there is the doctor's factotum, Shunderson, a convicted murderer who has secrets too, like so many ordinary Germans who had murdered Jews and other civilians and those who plotted against the Hitler government. They have to be accepted back into society if West Germany was to make it as a country. Without this background, there would have been no original German movie. Missing this misses the point of this movie which actually does not work as a comedy despite efforts to make it so with a clever and witty script. SanVitores (talk) 12:14, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Talk:That Touch of Mink

message: Someone might want to point out that the basic storyline is close to the Sturges/Leisen film Easy Living. It looks as if someone started out updating the script, then decided (after the first 20 minutes or so) to take the story in a different direction. There are too many similarities -- such as one of the characters working in an Automat, not to mention the centrality of the mink coat -- for them to be a complete coincidence.

message: The statement "As the costs to remedy a defect are up to 10 to 100 times less in the early operations compared to fixing a defect in the maintenance phase,[1] it is essential to find defects as close to the point of insertion as possible." is somewhat out of date. Modern research has shown that the large costs associated with defects in early software engineering studies were more a product of the development methods used rather than an innate feature of software development. The waterfall model influenced these studies in that the waterfall process is inherently costly and long, and defects found later in development (during testing or deployment) could mean that the development team needs to restart with requirements and specifications. In contrast, agile models that rely less heavily on defined processes and requirements and specifications do not exhibit this large cost.  172.221.186.254 (talk) 02:43, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
