[edit] Summary

DVD cover for Friends & Lovers (film).

Source: Amazon, copyright 1999 Lions Gate Films/Universal Studios.

[edit] Fair-use rationale

It is believed that the use of this image in the article, Friends & Lovers (film) is fair use because:

1. The image is necessary and standard to display the film as a whole for the lead-in infobox.
2. It is not practical to convey a visual image about the film without using the movie poster, therefore, this is a non-replaceable image.
3. The image is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be inferior).
4. The image does not inhibit sales of the DVD or posters of the film.
5. The image does not impede the licensing of the film.
6. The image does no damage to the image or quality of the film. In fact its use exactly fits the purpose of a movie poster, promoting the film.
7. The image is in larger resolutions used on other websites, such as Amazon, so its use on Wikipedia does not make any more accessible than it already is.

[edit] Licensing

This image is the cover of a videotape, DVD, Blu-ray Disc, etc. and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the video or the studio which produced the video in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of video covers to illustrate the videotape in question on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
