thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Shermansmarch.jpg

message: The narrator of this film was listed as "Ricky Leacock," with the citation pointing at reference #1 (now #4). I am not Danish, so apparently I can't view the referenced material, but I get the distinct feeling that it was being cited in an attempt to lend credence to a false piece of information. I literally just watched this film, and Ross McElwee is credited as the narrator, and this can be verified by watching the film, as he narrates throughout. I'm thinking the insertion of this credit was perhaps an homage to Richard Leacock, who is described on his Wikipedia page as "...one of the pioneers of Direct Cinema and Cinéma vérité," of which this film is an example.--Cogniac (talk) 16:33, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I think I've figured this out: There is a short piece of historical footage used at the beginning of the film that is about 60-90 seconds long and appears to be from a film narrated by Richard Leacock. IMDB.com has him credited with "Historical Narration" on Sherman's March here (right below Burt Reynolds). However, this still does not make him the narrator of this film; it simply makes him the narrator of a different film that was sampled within this film.--Cogniac (talk) 16:40, 21 November 2011 (UTC)
