Isaac Watts

[edit]

In a famous scene, spiteful women attack Molly at church, and the narrator recites 2 verses of Isaac Watts' poem:
LET dogs delight to bark and bite,
For God hath made them so;
Let bears and lions growl and fight,
For ’t is their nature to;

But, children, you should never let
Your angry passions rise;
Your little hands were never made
To tear each other’s eyes.

John Osborne's screenplay substitutes ladies for children and Watts is not credited for his poem. Schmausschmaus (talk)

NPOV

[edit]

This article seems too praising of the film. The writer practically gushes over the film like it's his favorite blow up doll or something. (That was a joke, not a personal attack *hides*) Can somebody de-POV it? Copysan 08:40, 29 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

tidied up some of it, could still use a rewrite though. --duncan 22:21, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Grammy award?

[edit]

Forgive me if I'm just ignorant but did they really used to give a Grammy award in the category of "Best horse stunts and fencing sequence by stuntman & stunt director?" Because, frankly, that seems unlikely.PatrickWB (talk) 05:50, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This does seem dubious, since Grammy Awards are for recorded music. It's either vandalism or someone thought some other award was a Grammy, but which is true, I don't know.69.29.207.109 (talk) 18:54, 29 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Tom Jones .jpeg

[edit]

Image:Tom Jones .jpeg 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.
