*'''Keep''' - On the contrary, the photograph identifies one of the major characters in the film, and also helps to illustrate the flat, direct and unadorned style of the film, and the overwrought style of the acting.

*Comment: Not sure about this one, so .. per the image description page, I'll just "share my thoughts". The placement may suggest otherwise, but I can accept that the intention is not simply to decorate the cast list. Many film articles use at least one screenshot to give something of the look of the film. I'd feel more confident if the text was expanded to demonstrate the usefulness of this specific image, but I disagree that the use is only decorative or that it adds nothing to the article. I'm undecided, but I'd lean somewhat closer to keeping than to deleting. [[User:Rossrs|Rossrs]] ([[User talk:Rossrs|talk]]) 10:12, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

*I uploaded this image, claiming "fair use". Fair use justification are only valid if there are no free alternatives. Since then I became aware of PD images of a "General Ali", from the same region as [[Hazrat Ali]] (<small>[[:File:General Ali and his Afghan fighters, November 2001.jpg]], [[:File:General Ali and his Afghan fighters, November 2001 b.jpg]]</small>). General Ali ''looks like'' Hazrat Ali. I'd like more eyes on this. If these images are of the same individual then the "fair use" one should go. But the resemblance could merely be a family resemblance. Thanks. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:12, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

  • This cover is pretty much the same as the other, and the rerelease, let alone its cover, is not mentioned in the article. Use of this non-free image is not justified. J Milburn (talk) 09:03, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Image is being used merely to decorate the cast list section, and adds nothing to the article. J Milburn (talk) 09:06, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - On the contrary, the photograph identifies one of the major characters in the film, and also helps to illustrate the flat, direct and unadorned style of the film, and the overwrought style of the acting. The fact that the image is next tot he cast list is not particularly relevant - that's where there happened to be whitespace which could easily accomodate it, however the image illustrates the article as a whole and not that particular section.
