[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale for Michael Rennie
Description	Fictional character Klaatu (incognito as Mr. Carpenter) portrayed by Michael Rennie (deceased).
Source	The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951 film) (1951 film) Copyright © MCMLI by Twentieth Century-Fox
Article	Michael Rennie
Portion used	1 still frame.
Low resolution?	Yes.
Purpose of use	Illustrate actor, character and film articles.
Replaceable?	As Klaatu image is unique and irreplaceable. As Michael Rennie (deceased) image is irreplaceable.
Other information	Fair use qualifications and assertion: Michael Rennie (deceased) shall never be available to create a new free image. Given this article states Michael Rennie is "best known" as Klaatu which IMO statisfies Wikipedia:Non-free content#Acceptable images "8. Images with iconic status or historical importance: As subjects of commentary." as iconic within the science-fiction film genre. Given Wikipedia:Non-free content#Unacceptable images has exception "12. ... However, for some retired or disbanded groups, or retired individuals whose notability rests in part on their earlier visual appearance, a new picture may not serve the same purpose as an image taken during their career." Therefore this image depicting this notable deceased actor in his iconic role qualifies to illustrate this article.
