Article looks fine, but it is an extremly boring hook, can anything else be found? Such as about it being lost? — M.Mario (T/C) 10:19, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
  • I rather like the contrast between nobility and (implied) prostitution, and lost films are sadly common.
  • ALT1: ... that a reviewer considered the flaws in Jasmine of Agam so obvious "even the stupidest villager" could spot them?
