Fair use rationale for Image:Home for the Holidays film.jpg
Image:Home for the Holidays film.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 Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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.

Trivia
This is unsourced and in list form so I've moved it here until it can be properly cited and integrated into other sections of the article.--J.D. (talk) 17:36, 12 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Robert Downey Jr. publicly admitted to using drugs during the making of this film, and to having great difficulty filming his scenes. Jodie Foster tried to intervene but could not.


 * Back story: The author of the original story, Chris Radant, was a single mother, artist and copywriter living in Boston. Chris had taken a break from the aforementioned duties to take a job with the Rolling Stones Tour (Urban Jungle--the European leg of "Steel Wheels Tour" in America.) Twenty-six cities in 4 months seemed like the ultimate thrill until she returned home to Boston and received a call from screenwriter Rick Richter. Rick said his wife had read the original Home for the Holidays story, (published in the Boston Phoenix newspaper) and then shown it to Rick. Then he told Chris he was interested in buying the rights to the story to write a screenplay. Chris admits that she didn't then know what an option was, but said an enthusiastic YES to the word "buy" in that sentence.

Radant also wrote a book of essays promoting the film: Home for the Holidays & Other Calamities, published by a division of Simon & Schuster in 1995, and contributed to the Home for the Holidays Cook Book, a compilation of recipes that have become a tradition in the families of the movie's cast and crew.

Today, Chris Radant is mother of a grown child, artist and copywriter living in Seattle.
