A Link

The link (no 23) regarding where the 'graveyard scene' is filmed is called Centennial Park Cemetery, with a link with takes you to the place, which actually is in Adelaide South Australia. Yet it states the film was made in NSW. Is this right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CHADWICK (talk • contribs) 04:45, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Accuracy Question

I saw this film in a theater on opening weekend. I really enjoyed it. It seems to be very accurate too. There's one point I'm particularly interested in knowing if it's true: at the end the soldier's won't advance up the ridge again until Doss is done praying and they're already 10 minutes late. Does any one know if this scene is true and is there a good source for this? 2600:8805:5800:F500:9C9D:6AB3:CBF8:A317 (talk) 19:49, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. This event happened and is mentioned in the documentary made on Doss's life, The Conscientious Objector. Regards, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 05:09, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

add location

a single world Okinawa is mentioned and since that battle is the worst in global history with 350,000 dying in ab 30 days (50-60x more than Normandy e.g.) there should be added like a line or two to show the location of the movie events in that larger battle of Okinawa... gyrene joans sempa fi 24.44.215.132 (talk) 15:58, 18 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Christian film?

Should this article be categorized as a Christian film? It says in "Theme" section that It also incorporates recurring religious imagery, such as baptism and ascension. which is technically in the body of Christianity. Bluesphere 07:51, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Doss's

Whatever your supposed source is that apostrophe only is more common, it is incorrect and against the MOS at WP:POSS. Because it is pronounced with two s sounds it should be spelled with two. Reywas92^Talk 21:03, 1 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to give reviewing this a go. Honestly, it looks like quite a bit of work from my initial quick skim-read, but I'll have a better look at it tomorrow. - adamstom97 (talk) 10:27, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, the first major issue for me is that the article has quite a few section with not much content in them. Writing, themes, music, marketing—there must be more info out there on these. Have a go at expanding those sections, as well as looking for more info that may not be added yet (post-production stuff, home media release). I'll give this a more thorough review once that is done. - adamstom97 (talk) 23:26, 17 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

This page requires quite a bit to get to GA standard, in my opinion, and the nominator doesn't have the time to address those concerns, so I am going to have to Fail this article at this time. - adamstom97 (talk) 05:07, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
