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)
- 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.

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.

[edit] Columbine?
This movie may have been the inspiration for the Columbine High School Massacre, as it is not definite whether the initials "NBK" (used by the killers as a code for their mission) referred to Natural Born Killers (as it is often thought), or to this.
Really? Are we sure they weren't referring to the National Bank of Kuwait? Pumpkingrrl 07:07, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
Well, the fact that the movie WAS released less than 2 weeks before the incident at Columbine does make its possibility more likely than other variations of NBK. That being said, I do agree that it's unlikely, and if there's an official source for that logic (say, police or psychologist theory), it should definitely be referenced...

Rob is Josie's younger brother, not older. It is said in the movie he is 23 years old, while she is 25.
[edit] Premise
The film was based on a real-life reporter's undercover exposé. I just found this out in my journalism class, as my teacher knows the woman that Drew Barrymore's character is based on, Shann Nix. I've added a citation. Yeshuamyking7 22:00, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Rating section.
ref Is there a particular reason why the movie's rating in one country deserves its own section? :-) 156.34.209.205 (talk) 02:40, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
