More Citations

This is an all right beginning. It leaves many questions hanging in the air and there are some statements (and maybe I just wasn't paying enough attention) that I don't know what they're based on. Gingermint (talk) 22:50, 22 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Romance of the Far Fur Country

This recently-restored documentary, which predates Nanook, may have some relevance to this article. 31.52.198.186 (talk) 14:57, 21 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In popular culture

That section makes little sense to me. Nanook means "polar bear" in Inuktitut, and it can't be assumed that all animal names in popular culture derive from the movie's sole influence. I suggest that all the ones which do not refer directly to the movie be removed. --Perilisk (talk) 18:00, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm confused

it says Cunayou is the child but it also says it's one of his wives; which one is it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.181.35.236 (talk) 01:14, 15 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Allakariallak's death?

The death scenario is referenced to two books that I don't have access to. Do they really seem to be well-researched and unimpeachable? As much as I would like to know that Allakariallak didn't die, lost in the snow, of starvation, there are some prominent film critics and historians who have written that he did. The Roger Ebert reference given for this very article, for instance. Another who says so is Mark Cousins, in "Chapter 2: 1918-1928-The Triumph of American Film and the First of Its Rebels" of The Story of Film: An Odyssey. It's a documentary written, directed, and narrated by Cousins, adapted from his 2004 book The Story of Film that's currently being presented on Turner Classic Movies over 15 weeks: http://www.tcm.com/storyoffilm/index.html Perhaps Ebert and Cousins have fallen for a cinematic urban legend? Or perhaps it was the authors of the two books who fell for a different cinematic urban legend, one that paints a more relieving picture? Any further insight among article authors here will be interesting to read. Thank you for your time, Wordreader (talk) 06:09, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
