A fact from Le ménage moderne du Madame Butterfly appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 6 January 2008.

[edit] Title

The title is grammatically incorrect, which is surprising since this supposedly is a French film.

It should be "Le ménage moderne de Madame Butterfly".

Any explanations? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.20.106.70 (talk) 16:22, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

• The "du" is how the film is cited in every source I have found. Even IMDB cites it that way. - Tim1965 (talk) 17:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Since the title is grammatically incorrect, I've added the tag {{refimprove}} to request reliable sources (preferably in French) for verification. If the error was intentional, an explanation should be added. Korg (talk) 03:36, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

The error does not appear to have been intentional, but rather that of a Romanian newly-arrived in France and getting the title wrong. A Google search on the title with "de" in it turned up absolutely nothing. - Tim1965 (talk) 14:26, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

I couldn't find a reliable source in the Google results; most of them are from blogs or are derived from the Wikipedia article. I found a page with "de" in the title: [1].

Also, I would be cautious with the sources you provided, as the word "ménage" appears to be spelled without the e-acute. I'll try to find additional sources. Korg (talk) 03:25, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Available online anywhere?

This article has aroused my curiosity (and only my curiosity, thankyou very much) such that I'd quite like to watch the film. I assume that as a 1920 film it's now out of copyright; is it likely to be available online anywhere? 81.187.153.189 (talk) 23:32, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
