Is the full frontal picture really necessary?

[edit] Composer? Also, name pronounciation

I removed the reference in the introduction to her being a composer as nowhere in the article is it indicated what she composed, and none of her notable work appears to be connected with the composing field.

In addition, I think it might be helpful to indicate the official pronounciation of her name. According to a televised interview I saw, her name apparently is pronounced like "evergreen" as "evah-green". But this should be confirmed as that could have been a mispronounciation. 23skidoo 09:53, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

It is stated in the article that she composed the score to The Dreamers. I will reinstate what you should not have deleted. Please read articles more carefully before making such deletions. --Scottandrewhutchins 17:18, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Does composing the score for one movie really make one a composer? Perhaps we should find other instances of her composing. --Phoenix Hacker 21:45, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
    • According to the sources listed on this article as well as the film's IMDB page, she did not compose the score. One of the websites linked here merely says she "wants to compose film scores someday." I think this was just a mistaken edit that got blown out of proportion, unless someone can point me to a source that says otherwise. So, I'm deleting both references.--Dmz5 23:03, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
Green is a fairly common Swedish surname and is pronunced with a long e-sound, represented in IPA by /e:/. This sound does not exist in English, and should not be confused with the long i-sound spelled 'ee' in English 'green' /gri:n/ nor with the diphthong /ei/ as in English 'day'.

The pronunciation guide given in the lead doesn't seem to match the one given later in the article. I personally have never actually heard anyone introduce her as "Eva GRAIN", not even on the recent Academy Awards telecast. Although there is that one interview in which she says this, I think it might be helpful to include a second source for this. 23skidoo 20:48, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Here's the thing. We as Americans may look at the name and think it's pronounced "GREEN", but what we don't take into consideration is the origin of that name and how it's pronounced in that country. Take Henry IV of France, it is really King "HENRI" IV. So in that respect those who think it's Eva "GRAIN" may or may not be right. El Greco 22:19, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spouse

Why does the quick info box refer to a spouse if none is metioned in the text body??? --62.245.209.52 00:27, 29 December 2006 (UTC)BinceGC

[edit] Eva Green Web

The reason I added the link: http://www.evagreenweb.com was because it is an up to date site on all things that deal with Eva. They include appearances, movies, interviews, biography etc. and I figured it was a good site to be added to the external links section for people who want to learn more about Eva. It also seems the webmistress also keeps in touch with Eva's agent on some sort of basis. So that's why I think the link should be included in the external links section.

Please reread WP:SPAM and WP:EL. Fansites are not appropriate links. --Yamla 14:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
