Fair use rationale for Image:A Kiss Before Dying DVD cover 1956.jpg[edit]

Image:A Kiss Before Dying DVD cover 1956.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Essence of film noir[edit]

In the "Analysis" section, the following assertion is made:

According to film critic Alain Silver, a theme used in film noirs is the disruptive force of the "maniac" in society. The threat to the family and social values are apparent in these types of films.

This characteristic, however, is not employed in all or even most film noirs.Lestrade (talk) 01:28, 24 July 2009 (UTC)Lestrade[reply]

- - I agree that I wouldn't at all call this particular pic a "film noir", and suggest any references to that genre be removed from the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.1.153 (talk) 00:11, 17 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
