No subject

Please, someone rewrite this so it's an article about the movie -- this article currently reads like that website that just gives away the ends of movies. Tempshill 06:01, 22 Oct 2003 (UTC)

Paragraph moved

This paragraph

Legend has it the young Weinstein brothers attended the film believing it to be racy European fare. They were so moved by the experience it led to a deep and enduring love of film and eventually to their founding Miramax Films.

should be in another place than the main section, where it looks out of place. Perhaps a new section named "Influence". Any objections? Nazroon 22:48, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:400blowsfence.jpg

Image:400blowsfence.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.

Adaptations of the title

I believe it is necessary to mention about the uses of the title in other media. There's probably a number of it. Here is my example.

The title was used in one story mentioned in Sesame Street. There, the name The 400 Blows literally refers to the way Grover has to blow 400 times to put out the candles on his birthday cake. Ironically, the story ends where Grover passes out after blowing just 40 times. A continuation was promised but didn't happen. 122.3.106.251 (talk) 08:45, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
