[edit] Lost in France

...Dorothy's husband has been killed in France.

If he was a soldier, then how did he get to be killed in France in 1942? --Jumbo 11:17, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

According to the telegram in the film, he was a pilot, and his plane was shot down over France... Perhaps I should correct it.209.169.114.213 17:29, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! I thought that might have been the case, but wasn't sure. It's been years since I saw the film. --Jumbo 17:35, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Many scenes in the film of "The Summer of '42" are from Martha's Vineyard. The movie theatre is on Martha's Vineyard. Much of the film's scenery looks like Martha's Vineyard. Did Raucher's experience actually take place on Martha's Vineyard? Martha's Vineyard is sometimes referred to as "the island."

[edit] Soundtrack

The article states: "Due to this lack of songs, when the soundtrack was released, it contained not only the score to Summer, but also a compilation of several of Legrand's other original scores. In spite of these songs' inclusion, many issues of the album are still labeled as exclusively being the soundtrack to Summer, while others contain the notation in small print on the album cover "Also contains The Picasso Suite." That first sentence isn't correct; except for the opening and closing tracks (which are both variants on the "Summer of '42" theme, all of the music on the album is from a film entitled "Picasso Summer" (hence "The Picasso Suite"). No other scores by Legrand are represented on this album. Rich 06:52, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Summer of forty two43.jpg

Image:Summer of forty two43.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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
