Credit due

I don't understand why Kurosawa's film takes the credit, when the story on which it is based (duly noted in the article) obviously precedes the film... Batula (talk) 07:23, 20 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the film, although not the originator of the idea, popularized the notion? 66.24.238.22 (talk) 22:47, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The film takes the credit because the story named Rashomon is not told from multiple perspectives and with conflicting facts. The film was named Rashomon, despite its plot being based on "Into the Grove," because "Into the Grove" was first published in a collection called "Rashomon" and thus the story often was better remembered for the title of the collection than for its individual name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.174.150.14 (talk) 04:04, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Full text of Heider article

I found a site with the full text of the publication by Heider here: http://polaris.gseis.ucla.edu/gleazer/291B/Heider-Rashomon.pdf I'm not sure how to cite it and such, but I think it would be useful to link that site in the citation, so people who are interested can read it.67.188.216.255 (talk) 18:59, 3 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Daffy and Porky

It's been used in The Looney Tunes Show episode "Reunion", where Daffy and Porky have different memories of high school.GoPeter452 (talk) 01:17, 14 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MLP:FIM

I removed the section from My Little Pony Friendship is Magic because it's not really a Rashomon effect; each of the six describe the same event in non-contradictory ways. ...OK, so this probably could have fit in the edit summary, but it seemed longer in my head.

Use in Movies

Should the movie Vantage Point be included here? The first paragraph of the entry for that movie indicates that "The film is cited for its use of the Rashomon Effect." Sablesear (talk) 08:21, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Shutter Island

How about Shutter Island? Should it be included? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 171.229.240.145 (talk) 15:44, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rashomon effect or Rashōmon effect?

At WT:JAPAN we are discussing if adding macron (diacritic accents) to this title to conform to the Japanese romanization of "Rashōmon" is original research or correcting bad spelling and whether MOS:JAPAN applies to this psychological concept. You are invited to respond. -- 76.65.128.43 (talk) 11:04, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Remove "Go"

I'm not a regular Wikipedian, so I won't do it myself, but I wanted to strongly recommend that someone remove the film "Go" from the "Use in Cinema" list. It does not belong there. Just because a film is told from different perspectives does not make it Rashomon effect. It has to be conflicting perspectives. The movie "Go", like dozens of other movies, is told from multiple different characters' viewpoints, but they do not ever contradict one another, so it does not apply for Rashomon effect. I'm guessing this goes for a lot of the other films on the list too, but without having seen them all, I can't say for sure. In any case, I recommend a Wikipedian remove "Go" from the list. The list should be restricted to films that contain contradicting perspectives.
