Fair use rationale for Image:Burgessct.jpg

[edit]

Image:Burgessct.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. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Enderby's reaction to the film version of The Wreck of the Deutschland

[edit]

The article states that Enderby considers it "bloody awful". However I have just read the book and can't find that reaction anywhere in the novel. When he sees the premiere, it says, " (sexual relationship between Tom and the nun)... Enderby supposed, was all right too". Then later on the same page, "On the whole, not a bad film, with Hopkins getting a secondsworth of solo credit". Later he defends the film on the chat show, and afterwards enters a cinema to see a few scenes of the film, "Some nice swooping camerawork..... Beautiful contrived colour-contrasts.... It all seemed pretty harmless, Enderby thought."

The article on The Wreck of the Deutschland also says, "only to be duly horrified when the resulting movie bears little resemblance to either his script or to Hopkins's poem"

I disagree with this comment and the quotation that Enderby condsiders it "blood awful". I would suggest changing this to words to the effect that Enderby is ambivalent to the fact that his script has been rewritten in order to set the film during the Second World War. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.134.23.30 (talk) 12:14, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
