Talk:Nil by Mouth (film)

Inaccurate info
the devil's rejects had less instances of 'fuck' than this movie so why does the trivia section of this article have a lie in it?


 * Because anyone can put anything in Wikipedia regardless of its accuracy. And there are conflicting reports of the f-word count in "The Devil's Rejects."  Some sources claim that there are 560 f-words in "The Devils' Rejects," which would put it above "Nil By Mouth."  Other reports claim that there are less than 300 f-words in "Devils Rejects" though.


 * On a similar note, we also need clarification on the number of times the word "cunt" is used. The Wiki entry claims it's 96, and someone rightly put a "citation needed" note on it.  The IMDB trivia page claims it's 42.

 * I agree that the whole thing should get axed until someone provides a valid source. M URGH   disc.  19:29, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I would like to point out that this is still a problem, as facts in this article contradict the List of films that most frequently use the word "fuck".G man yo (talk) 12:05, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Meaning of Title?
What is the meaning of the title "Nil by Mouth" -- ?

 * That no substance may be passed orally, usually noted on a chart of a hospital patient who may only receive nutrition by IV. In this film, it holds the double meaning that the main character never experienced that his father ever said a kind word to him. M URGH   disc.  20:55, 12 March 2009 (UTC)


 * Interesting, thx. Would be a bold addition to the article -- have you got a reference? I'm not qualified, haven't seen the film. Karl gregory jones (talk) 04:19, 13 March 2009 (UTC)


 * It might very well appear in a RS review of the film (don't know one off-hand), in which case it would be a valid addition, but just per my mention it is invalid as OR. I might add it if I came across such a source, but despite being a great little film, I don't think it received a lot of coverage. M URGH   disc.  17:04, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
