Talk:The Band's Visit
Sloppy edits
[edit]There are several problems with the recent edits. They are sloppy, naked quotes all of which praise the movie. There are empty sections. There are scenes that some editor find "remarkable" without any citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia should stick just to the facts. Please review Wikipedia policies. Thanks. --GHcool (talk) 22:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
- Dear GHcool, I have noticed that you have deleted half of the article's text, without discussing it with article contributors. As the history page shows, Gilabrand, has reverted your deletes. But you have again deleted the text. I am restoring the deleted sections of the article. If you have any comments or objections please first discuss it with colleagues. regards, Julian Weizmann 06:47, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
- I agree with last changes made by Gilabrand. Julian Weizmann (talk) 07:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
Can Guy Bellinger be cited as a critic? As far as I can tell he writes mini-reviews for IMDB and so writing "critics described Ronit Elkabetz..." is not only incorrect, but questionable on an authoritative level.

DVD documentary
[edit]The "making of" feature on the US dvd mentions the actors are israeli and palestinian, which of course is notable. Can that be sourced better than the dvd extras?(mercurywoodrose)76.245.46.57 (talk) 07:26, 11 February 2011 (UTC)
Ban in Egypt
[edit]The film was banned/boycotted for a time in Egypt[1], although it was eventually screened there.[2] Does it make sense to mention this in the article? Crust (talk) 00:13, 11 September 2018 (UTC)
External links
[edit]Currently the Metacritic link leads to "404 – Page Not Found". I clicked Edit to substitute a different URL but don't see where to change it. The good Metacritic URL is http://www.metacritic.com/movie/the-bands-visit. Mcljlm (talk) 16:59, 26 January 2017 (UTC)
