Lead
[edit]- Delink black and white per MOS:OVERLINK
- "The film is shot in 16 mm film and 9 minutes long. The film features animation, montage, jump cuts, associative editing, and freeze-frame shots." - think these sentences could be merged and shortened slightly
- "Scorsese, said the film has no depth at all." - the comma is unneeded
- "He directed the film shortly after watching Federico Fellini's surrealist comedy-drama 8½ (1963)" - Federico Fellini's 1963 surrealist comedy-drama 8½
- "The film was supposed to be a horror film but it later turned out be a comedy." - intended
- Also, repetition of the word "film" in the above sentence is not recommended
- How about give a brief mention of the reception of the film by reviewers?
Summary
[edit]- "(played by Zeph Michaelis)" - I don't think the wording such as "played by" is needed in all of the instances the phrase is mentioned in the section
- "is a writer who buys a picture of a boat on a lake. He becomes obsessed with the picture." - how about merging these two sentences and shorting it slightly to avoid an almost CV-based stacatto
- "he finds himself trapped inside of the picture." - inside of it.
Cast
[edit]- "Credits adapted from British Film Institute." - from the British Film Institute.
Production
[edit]- "The film is the first film of Martin Scorsese." - repetition of the word "film"
- "What's a Nice Girl Like You Doing in a Place Like This? was supposed to be a horror film" - intended
- "The film features music of Richard H. Coll," - the text in bold should be changed to either features the music of Richard H. Coll or music from Richard H. Coll,
- "and it is edited by Robert Hunsicker." - was edited by Robert Hunsicker.
- "after watching Federico Fellini's surrealist comedy-drama 8½ (1963) for the first time." - reduce the amount of links per MOS:SEAOFBLUE
- "but the re-release is 10m 2s." - 10 minutes, 2 seconds.
Reception
[edit]- "Martin Scorsese described the film as "a tale of pure paranoia"." - it should be just Scorsese per MOS:SURNAME
- Briefly state who Annette Wernblad is
- "Peter Galvin of Special Broadcasting Service wrote," - of the Special Broadcasting Service
References
[edit]- Both mentions of Univ. Press of Mississippi should be University Press of Mississippi
- Reference 5 should include the author who wrote the article
- Reference is lacking the date it was published
- Reference 10 is missing the author of the article and the date it was published
