Confusion over release dates

[edit]

This comment has been moved from the main page to here as it contains information that should be taken into consideration when looking into the accuracy of this article. It was entered by User:Audreyfan.

  • This article is incorrect. Both films were shot simultaneously in 1951 with somewhat different casts for the two versions. According to Jerry Vermilye's book "The complete films of Audrey Hepburn" the French version was released in 1952 and the English version in 1953.

It should also be noted that IMDb (which I know is not 100% reliable) does list 1951 as the year of British release, although they do not have an exact date. They then list 1953 as the year of US release which may or may not be part of the discrepancy noted above. A check of the French version shows that it premiered in Belgium Dec. 14, 1951 and in France on Jan. 25, 1952MarnetteD | Talk 18:04, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Moved Here

[edit]

I've moved the following text here which had been written at the end of the article

The main entry is so obviously written by somebody who knows nothing about the subject that I'm surprised it's still not ben drastically changed. The French film was the main one and the English version was secondary. The main stars were the Ray Ventura band and the production company was French. It was only released in the USA after Hepburn's success in "Roman holiday".

I'm no expert on this film so this may be right, but this comment belongs here rather than in the article itself.Lord Cornwallis (talk) 04:44, 30 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

After those coments I can't believe this film still being refered as a "British movie" (?????) even a newbee on the subject knows very well that the anglo-saxon market always need a movie to be made in english - which on the contrary is not the case for all the other european countries regarding original foreign movies (as for the french, i dare you to find a single french movie to be a remake from an original english language!) !!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.80.67.108 (talk) 20:11, 15 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
