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. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

The link to Gary Lee Lewis links to a murderer who I don't think was in this movie.

[edit] Title

IMDB lists this movie as Out of Rosenheim. I suggest moving the article to this title with a redirect from Bagdad Café. If anyone opposes, there should at least be a section commenting on the two different titles. Any thoughts? --Bensin 23:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

The IMDB listing is confusing even for people there who search for the actors and don't see "Bagdad Cafe" listed (see the repeated discussions there under CCH Pounder for an example). Since it was released in the US with the name "Bagdad Cafe" and if you want to purchase the DVD you have to look for it under that name, I'd suggest leaving it as it is with the comments as Bensin suggests. 70.88.107.58 18:34, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Delro Harris

[edit] Trivia

At least one trivia item mentioned appears to have been a direct copy/paste from some unknown site, obvious from the use of first person in the sentence ("We filmed at" and "our lunch breaks"). Possible copyright violation, or added by someone actually involved with the production. MDonfield 06:27, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
