Untitled[edit]

It is stated as a note that the section about the synopsis is too long and needs to be changed. I don't agree. I think it is well written and summaries the movie very well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mtpascoe (talk • contribs) 07:24, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

When all the players in the lockerroom state that they want to play Texas, it is a nod to the scene in Spartacus where all the slaves claim to be Spartacus. true story --wjs23

The Express → The Express: The Ernie Davis Story – To enable The Express to redirect to disambiguation page Express. The term has no primary topic but commonly refers to various newspapers and express trains. I just reviewed articles with incoming links to The Express: 70 were correct but 45 others needed fixing, mainly to the UK Daily Express. The Express (film) could also be a good title: both already redirect here. Certes (talk) 19:52, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support, good idea and research. Randy Kryn (talk) 22:35, 21 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support. If anything's a primary topic here, it's the Daily Express. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:08, 22 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support, proper wikification.-TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:50, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Weak support even though views [[1]] show that this gets significantly more views than other articles titled "The Express" but as noted many other articles could be called "The Express". Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:32, 25 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Original songs"?[edit]

The text mentions the use of "original songs" by various songwriters. I think this means that they used songs which were appropriate to the time period, but it sounds like the songs were written for the movie, which can't be the case. Brianyoumans (talk) 00:53, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
