Talk:Julie Taymor

Untitled

I've never heard of Julie Taymore (the 19th Century artist...or perhaps art patron?) who is stubbed here. This, of course, doesn't indicate at all that she didn't exist...but it does make me curious. Does anyone know if Taymore existed, or was this a random gibberish? Jwrosenzweig 23:36, 4 Aug 2003 (UTC)

Just placing another note on the off-chance it will catch someone's attention on recent changes or if they happen to have watchlisted this page. I never have found anything about this 19th Cen. figure, and in the absence of any corroborating evidence save an anonymous editor, I'm hesitant to let it keep sitting here. Anyone know if this is a real person, or just some bizarre spoof entry? Jwrosenzweig 23:12, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

If another year passes, I'm deleting it. :-) Jwrosenzweig 00:39, 22 July 2005 (UTC)

NPOV

This article seems to be written from a non-neutral point of view that is strongly promotional of the subject. Here are two sections in particular that need attention:

On March 9, 2011, it was reported by The New York Times that Taymor would be leaving her role as director of "Spider-Man" after disputes with the show's producers, who wanted to drastically alter the existing storyline and general artistic direction.[9]'

The framing of the sentence implies strongly that the dispute is the fault of the producers

In a March 14, 2011 piece by Roger Friedman, it was reported that Taymor will receive her original Spider-Man credits, with sources saying that Spider-Man producer Michael Cohl and Bono did bring in a script doctor, music supervisor and other new members for the creative team.[10]. As of June 2, 2011, Laura Penn, the executive director of the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, confirmed rumors of the ongoing dispute between Taymor and the show's producers about director’s fees that Taymor has not received from the production [11].

Again, the disputes are framed from Taylor's perspective. Though there is mention of the controversy surrounding this director's work in recent years, the "other side" of the controversy is not represented here at all. Voila-pourquoi (talk) 21:24, 22 August 2011 (UTC)

Unmarried

I don't believe Taymor and Goldenthal have ever married. --TEHodson 08:14, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

Every interview or bio I see refers to them as an unmarried couple. She says in 2007 that they've been "happily unmarried" for 20 years."--TEHodson 08:18, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
