[edit] Section Changes

A suggestion: This entry really doesn't need to have the entire plot and characters described, as the film is based on a very well-known play and users should be able to go to the play description and see the plot description there. Instead, this entry ought to simply discuss noteworthy differences between the play's plot and the film (cut and rearranged scenes, etc). --A user

Agreed ... another worthy addition would be information about how the casting and performances were received. For example, I believe I recall skepticism about the casting of Keanu Reeves, who was/is not taken very seriously as an actor. Also, the casting of Denzel Washington may be of note, particularly in the era of color-blind casting. Lawikitejana 17:44, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

The choice of Denzel Washington is even more noteworthy since his character and Keanu Reeves' are half-brothers. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.232.225.251 (talk) 02:51, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

My suggestion is this: we create subsections on Differences from the Original Play (i.e. placement of the Hey nonnys); the Musical aspects; and/or Casting Reception.Polymathematics 22:16, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Michael Keaton's role

Michael Keaton's role is only briefly mentioned, although my favorite part is not competely said the quote "DO not FORGET THAT Bold text I AM AN ASS!"Bold text

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Maan.jpg

Image:Maan.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
