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. Article upgrading needed: You can help!

[edit] Source for Allen's fave quote?

Can an Amazon.com review really be taken as a source for Allen claiming that this is his favorite of his films? I've heard the same said of him about Love and Death. --B. Phillips 01:44, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Relevance of the 9/11 attacks to Allen's opinion ?

Allen's opinion
In a rare public appearance at the National Film Theatre just after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Allen listed The Purple Rose of Cairo as...

What do the 9/11 attacks have to do with his appearance? If they prompted it, then that needs to be cited, if not, then they have no bearing, and the date of the appearance, or even late 2001 would be more appropriate.

[edit] Filming locations

It says that the diner is 'now' in Ithaca, NY, from NJ. How is this so? It's not like they moved the diner, did they? If only the name went, that's not really relevant to the filming location - perhaps specify the diner's current name in NJ, if so. Achromatic (talk) 06:50, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
