Talk:Preston Sturges

In this article, Sturges is reported to have worked for his stepfather's "store," the Desti Emporium. In the linked official website, operated by his family members, his biography reports that his mother "opened an elegant salon on the rue de la Paix in Paris called the Maison Desti" and then a branch in Deauville, and finally one in New York. I am inclined to believe the family's report, but will hold off editing the page until others weigh in.

There is also the matter of the multiple lengthy quotations of screenplays. Sturges was a hilarious writer and as much as the dialogue is delightful, I think this amount of quoting seems excessive.
