Political film & Other Comments[edit]

The movie IMHO is not political at all, expecially when compared with previous Sollima's films, like the western ones. Do we have any source that state this is one of "Sergio Sollima's more political films"? --Phyrexian ɸ 07:20, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I would agree. This is not a political film at all, and there is nothing in it that is 'political.' ... The film is notable for the plot's complexity (and concerning which I am unsure if the write-up is wholly correct on), as well as for Ennio Morricone's imaginative and romantic score, one of his finest. The film direction itself is also well done. (John G. Lewis (talk) 18:45, 19 December 2019 (UTC))[reply]

Hughes (2006)[edit]

PatTheMoron, would it be possible for you to disambiguate the references to the two Hughes (2006) references that you added to this articles? There is disambiguation advice here. Thanks! Wham2001 (talk) 08:08, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Done! PatTheMoron (talk) 12:04, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank-you!

Production country[edit]

I'm leaning towards Curti's book to more correct for the production country than the AFI. Curti's book pulls information from the Italian Film Archives based on the production and it's predominantly an Italian production so I trust those archives more so than AFI in this case.

No arguments on my end. If you have time to do so, would you possibly consider including Curti's personal thoughts on the film in the reception section? PatTheMoron (talk) 10:33, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
