Talk:Gabriel Over the White House

Box Office numbers
I know the Turner web page says this was a hit but I've got two well researched print sources which disagree:


 * Black, Gregory D. Hollywood Censored: Morality Codes, Catholics, and the Movies. Cambridge University Press 1996 ISBN 0-521-56592-8 (pg. 144)
 * Doherty, Thomas Patrick. Pre-Code Hollywood: Sex, Immorality, and Insurrection in American Cinema 1930-1934. New York: Columbia University Press 1999. ISBN 0-231-11094-4 (pg. 75)

Monomaniac fascist references
There are twenty references that this movie was about a fascist-like takeover of the US government by a president. A better balance could be achieved with an additional line "Measures such as these can be found in the Lincoln administration."

The article fails to emphasize the prophetic nature of this 1933 movie. Not just that is poses a requisite socio-political solution to the anger and deep wounds of the populus which existed in 1933, but also that aircraft would make battleships without aircraft protection obsolete.

Garbled text
Halfway through the Plot section something goes wrong with the text. As if it was copied by a primitive OCR. Sajita (talk) 13:56, 19 October 2019 (UTC)
