Editing Guidelines

Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article:

If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references.
Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

A Film infobox needs to be added to this article, or the current one needs to be updated. For formatting information see the style guidelines

This article needs a free image related to the subject. Possible images include things like a picture of the set, prominent actors, or the director.

How can the book be "in 1952" and yet still be "made into a movie in 1947"? This seems counterintuitive, and some clarification would be appreciated. Nowalaters 23:28, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

Indeed. Well, IMDb states that the film was produced in 1947 (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039512/). Yet, Amazon gives the following publishing information:

Publisher: Prentice Hall; 1 edition (April 1, 1952)

(http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0135306752/104-1040928-8514360?v=glance&n=283155)

Someone has to be wrong. My thought is that the publishing date is of the english translation, and not of the original text, but I've yet to find anything to confirm this.

--Sycron 20:38, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Alright, this is what a french version of the text states (ISBN: 2070394824): "Ce scénario, conçu en 1943, a été publié pour la première fois en 1947. Un film en a été tiré la même année, adapté et réalisé par Jean Delannoy, avec Micheline Presle et Marcel Pagliero." So, he wrote it in 1943 but it was first published in 1947 with the film being made in the same year.

--Sycron 01:00, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

I added a little text at the beginning of the article (which should really be reworded; there's something I don't like about it, but I'm tired) because Les Jeux Sont Faits and The Game Is Up are not word-for-word translations, and thus I find the original

"Les Jeux Sont Faits (The Game Is Up)"

to be misleading. Maybe I'm being picky. --^pirate 01:15, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

No, that's quite valid. I've changed the text to: "Les Jeux Sont Faits, literally "The Games Are Done", though more commonly known translated as The Game Is Up" --Sycron 20:01, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

Just realized that I didn't read what I had written, and that it sounds ridiculous. Edited again. --Sycron 02:29, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Stub No More?

I believe that that this piece is approaching article-status in that it provides a clear description of the subject with a relavent degree of scope, as well as having been parsed by several editors. Therefore, I'd move to suggest that it be given article status. I will proceed to do so in a few weeks time, if unopposed, in order to provide for a reasonable timeframe in which others might respond. --Sycron 18:30, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disambig?

Why should this page be split up? This would only create stubs (ie. if splitting up the novel from the respective theatre and film adaptations) and the subject matter is all related, thus I find it hard to warrant splitting it up. --^pirate 18:23, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

I oppose this action on practical grounds. There simply isn't enough information regarding the film adaptation to warrant a separate article.--Sycron 19:38, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
