a line in the entry states ' ..[t}he character Isabelle declares she was born in 1959, even though the film is set in the late sixties. This line is not to be taken literally; '

perhaps the birth date of a mysterious brother is not to be taken seriously either: :

'Bertolucci has two brothers: the film producer Giovanni (b. 24 June 1940) and the theatre director and playwright Giuseppe (b. 27 February 1947).' is not t be taken seriously, at least without explanation, Bernardo's own birth date is given as March 16, 1940. Elsewhere he is listed as a cousin, which i have decided to follow.Actio (talk) 02:24, 3 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

General messiness

The sub-heading "Spirituality" etc., seems really to be about sexuality, so perhaps that should be changed. As well, if spirituality is to be discussed, then maybe it should kick off with a discussion of Little Buddha? As well, the section on Red Harvest has no sources to back it up, and no dates are mentioned within the text itself; as it stands, it's no more than free-floating rumour. Note also that the plot of Red Harvest is already pretty socialist, so it doesn't seem likely that a script draft by Bertolucci could have been rejected as too political, given that the way Chandler sets the tale up is political from the get-go.
