[edit] Bad review link

I don't know who on wikipedia has it out for Woody Allen, but they keep smearing shit about him all over his movie pages. Such as the link to the bad review here. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 199.94.76.7 (talkcontribs) 19:43, 13 December 2005.

[edit] Needs more information

This article could definetly use more information such as critiques and other informations. Gryffindor 22:38, 9 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More detail needed

The article mentions Crime and Punishment, but it should go into more detail about the film's allusions to the book, especially in the structure of the murders.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.203.235.45 (talkcontribs) 22:00, 17 January 2006.

The article should mention thematic similarities to earlier films by Allen, especially Crimes and Misdemeanors.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.203.235.45 (talkcontribs) 22:00, 17 January 2006.

[edit] Warning label seems misplaced

Andy (2/19/06): The warning label seems misplaced. I thought the Dostoevsky allusions were valid & accurate.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.66.85.99 (talkcontribs) 00:14, 20 February 2006.

The template, {{SectOR}}, does not challenge the section's validity or accuracy. It asks editors to add references for what appears to be original research. Could you add sources to the section? Just follow the example from the critical response section (i.e. bracket references with the <ref></ref> pairs). If you or someone else is unwilling to do that, I believe the warning should be reinstated. Kayaker 11:16, 20 February 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Subtext

The Subtext section clearly includes spoilers...should they really be placed after "spoilers end here"?Eric Sieck 20:30, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

I removed it, alhough there is a second spoiler warning (which we can keep for clarity anyway).--Patrick 23:11, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "U.S. DVD release date" section

I think we don't need this section anymore because there's no point of relating to this source except we passed by expectations and there may be a trivial purpose. Shall we live without it? Why or why not? How? —69.227.160.7 22:51, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More details added.

Added a number of details in relation to the connection between the book and the film. For instance, I roughly organized the similarities into the structural similarities and the psychological similarities.

I also added comments regarding both charachters attempts to reject traditional morality as well as a comment regarding Chris' success at this task relative to Raskalnikov.

[edit] Original research

The subtext section seems like wikipedia:original research to me.. thoughts? Rhobite 00:23, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

I tagged this section as original research a while back, and now I removed it. Feel free to replace/rewrite it with sources. Rhobite 18:54, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confusion

What does this line mean, exactly? "Many internet users claims that this film Johansson's first sex scene, though the scene involves her being fondled." User:Yllosubmarine 10:17, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Age of Innocence

Should any mention be made of this film's similarity to Edith Wharton's novel, Age of Innocence?
