message: One of my favorite films. I have seen multiple sources that give those characters' full names as "Leslie Gallant III" and "Hezekiah Sturdy." However, I was watching it just yesterday and noted that Keenan Wynn's character is referred to as "Mr. Hezekiah" at least one, while Curtis's is addressed as "Mr. Leslie" several times. I understand - and appreciate - the informal courtesy shown by addressing someone as "Mister Jim," "Miss Phyllis," etc., but I just don't think that fits here. Do these names - along with Max's surname of "Meen" - come from a script or press kit or something? PurpleChez (talk) 17:03, 15 March 2017 (UTC)

message: There are only two songs with lyrics in the entire movie. One of these songs takes place in an Old West style bar. The other song has a "sing-along" subtitle run. The movie is Comedy/Adventure with only about 8-10 minutes taking place in a "Western" setting. All the other 'non-song' music is standard background that fits the action of the scenes.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:3008:1600:E16C:D16F:80A1:FCD4 (talk) 09:58, 20 May 2018 (UTC)

message: On October 12, 2014, TCM showed an 'alternate ending' for Dinner at Eight.  Unfortunately, I did not see how the clip started, but it ended with banter among the attending dinner guests not seen in the original.  Then, when it is announced that dinner is ready, all the guests break into a gallop for the dining room (no further dialogue, not even the priceless exchange between Harlow and Dressler).  Can anyone expand on where this came from?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.140.33.158 (talk) 04:25, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Talk:City Slickers

message: The following is unsourced information:
* When the characters talk about their "best" days, Billy Crystal tells a real-life story about seeing his first baseball game at Yankee Stadium.
* The title of the movie in its French release, "La Vie, L'Amour, Les Vaches," translates as "Life, Love, Cows."
* The title of the movie in its Argentinian release, "Amigos por siempre amigos" translates as "Friends forever friends."
* The movie was filmed on Ghost Ranch in Abiquiu, New Mexico
* Bruno Kirby was deathly allergic to horses, and needed daily allergy shots on the set of City Slickers.
While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (talk) 11:58, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Ball of Fire

message: Without sources, the following is original research (WP:OR):
Hawks' use of mise en scene in this film contributes to the sense of character development and advancement of the narrative. The tightly packed workroom where the professors spend the majority of their time is indicative of the vast amount of knowledge held by each of the professors. Their workspace is clearly the center of their focus, and their lives revolve around it. Everything from the manner of dress to the general demeanor of the characters afford the viewer with clues about the character's nature. Sugarpuss's original manner of dress is extreme and reflects her free personality and suggests confidence in all areas. She exudes sexuality, and begins to win over the love of Prof. Bertram. In contrast, Bertram's particularly reserved manner of dress reflect his strait-laced personality. Unwilling to stray from his work, Bertram is prepared to put off his happiness with Sugarpuss in order to complete the encyclopedia. His stiff, uncomfortable stance also starkly contrasts Sugarpuss's relaxed demeanor. These elements of mise en scene are only a few of the cinematic qualities which enhance the storytelling process of Ball of Fire.

Talk:Alaska Legislature

message: I propose that the main articles for the Alaska Legislature, in particular the Alaska Senate and Alaska House of Representatives, restrict themselves to general information that applies to all years and sessions of the legislature, with information about specific years/sessions placed instead in those articles.  For example, instead of including the full list of who is who in the Senate or the House, or what legislation they pass, for the 25th Legislature (2007-2008) on the main Senate/House pages, that information should be in the 25th Alaska State Legislature, with info from the "general" pages pointing to it.  As it is currently, that specific is found on both pages, & has to be removed from the "general" pages once a new legislature is elected. --AKfax 19:34, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Talk:Love and Death

message: I don't really think the line cited as a "Polish joke" is that at all.

message: From the article:
: The state capital, Juneau, is not accessible by road, which has spurred several debates over the decades about moving the capital to a city on the road system.
: Yet, if you use Google Maps, and ask to plot a route from Anchorage to Juneau, it'll give you a route.  Granted, you have to cut through the Yukon Territory using the Alaska Highway, but one can still travel to Juneau via road.  Check it out here.
:Perhaps it should be changed to something like "Juneau is inaccessible unless one cuts through Yukon Territory on the Alaska Highway (or Highway 1, as it's known in the Yukon portion of that road) then turning south onto Haines Highway (also known as Yukon Highway 3) at Haines Junction, YT."

#:: Woody Allen's 1992 film, Shadows and Fog, is a pastiche of expressionism, taking cues from several films, such as the plot of M (1931) and the look of Nosferatu.
