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)
- For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)
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.

The article seemed to have been written by someone who does not speak English as mother tongue or perhaps is an awkward translation from the French (perhaps partly machine translated? It sounded a bit like babelfish or freetranslation.com). I made a few corrections (tense and correcting the sense of one of the sentences). The article can stand as it is now, unless someone wants to make it flow a bit more naturally. By the way, it is a very amusing film, though why a French Canadian doctor from Montreal would be obsessed with cricket is a bit obscure. As an English Montrealer myself, I mostly relied on the subtitles, and I may have missed some of the subtleties (subtleties not subtitles, heh heh). I wondered at one point if the doctor was intended to be an English Canadian fluent in French (I do know a very very few anglo's who are into cricket) but my French Canadian colleagues say not.

The cricket sections are also incredibly inaccurate, whether deliberately or not I don't know. See this review from Cricinfo (a specialist cricket site), for example. 86.136.252.181 05:39, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
