Fair use rationale for Image:Elmer gantry.jpg

[edit]

Image:Elmer gantry.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.

If there are substantial changes from the book, as mentioned in the intro, then there should be a section discussing those changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.234.236.56 (talk) 18:32, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has stated: "Deeply saddened by Sharon's death and having reached something of a moral awakening, Elmer decides to stop evangelizing, quoting from the Bible: "When I was a child, I understood as a child and spake as a child. When I became a man, I put away childish things." (1 Corinthians 13:11)"

I don't take that away from the ending of Richard Brooks's movie at all. I take away that Gantry has matured as a Believer/Christian and he is off to do God's work. He not only quotes from _The Holy Bible_, he walks off with the Bible in his hand. I take it that he has realized that it is not all about the fame and money, but it is about doing the work of Jesus Christ wherever the Spirit leads him.User:JCHeverly 20:26, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I just watched Elmer Gantry; it looked as though Gantry handed the remnants of Sharon's burnt Bible to William Morgan, then strode off with valise and hat in hand.66.87.78.98 (talk) 06:04, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
