Hollywood jargon
..."Earning buzz"? Seriously folks, could we have English that is Encyclopedia based? Robvanvee (talk) 12:16, 19 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Locations: The movie is mostly set in Upper Darby but there are scenes in the parking lot of the Linc and in the Diamond District and at the old Benjamin Franklin Hotel.
 * Cooper is from Philadelphia

Age of Jennifer Lawrence
The page states "Russell did not believe Lawrence was suitable for the role and her audition was only a formality.[22][24] He thought Lawrence (21 at the time of filming) was too young to play against Cooper (37), but her audition changed his mind" - however the film states it was filmed during the 2008 NFL Season (the Seahawks game was mentioned). Lawrence's age would not have been 21 at the time, but instead she would have been 18 years old. Can someone please verify this? Additionally, Cooper's age during the filming would have actually been 33 years old. - echoRelay — Preceding unsigned comment added by EchoRelay (talk • contribs) 06:04, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

The story takes place in 2008, but the film was shot in 2011 when Lawrence was 21 and Cooper 37. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.191.52.75 (talk) 07:37, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Deals with issues relating to mental illness
Must be scrutinized for disinformation on the film and presumptions made on characters that may lead to stigmatization of mental illness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.163.222.153 (talk) 23:32, 2 June 2013 (UTC)

Diner Scene Edit
Hello everyone. I have a small edit that I want to make on this article but I am not sure if it is really relevant or not, or if it is needed in a Wikipedia article. I wanted to add the location of the diner scene where Tiffany destroys all the plates on the table. Can I make this edit? ItsDaBunnyYT (talk) 19:52, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Bipolar disorder section
Why is there a long and detailed section explaining what bipolar disorder is? You can just link to the related article. This is an Encyclopedia, and I'm sure people know how to use the whole "click here if you want to know more" deal.

Soundtrack listing is incorrect
The sound track listing is incorrect. It is correct for the CD version of the soundtrack but incorrect for the songs contained in the movie. The listing is missing "What is and what should never be" by Led Zeppelin (32:20 into the movie), "HEllo Operator" by the White Stripes, "Have yourself a merry little christmas" by Frank Sinatra, "Fell in love with a girl" by Jack White, and others. That section needs a rewrite. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djangofan (talk • contribs) 02:44, 14 April 2013 (UTC)

Genre
The description describes the file as a "comedy-drama" but does not fit at all in the genre of comedy. I think this should maybe change. --Jimv1983 (talk) 09:00, 5 July 2013 (UTC)

Tiffany Maxwell not a 'sex addict'
Jennifer Lawrence's character, Tiffany Maxwell, is not a 'sex addict'. The narrative makes clear she assumed responsibility for her late husband's death. Due to her protracted abstention from marital relations, her sexually-frustrated husband, whom she loved very much and to whom she was faithful, tried to restore their physical relationship with a purchase of lingerie as a gift to her, and was killed in a motor vehicle accident in the course of his return home. Tiffany judged that her abstemiousness was the ultimate cause of her husband's death. She reacted to all this with a prolonged period of blatant sexual activity to offset her 'wrongful' abstemiousness. The narrative makes clear she is no longer acts that way. It also makes clear she is a sensual person who desires sexual activity. This is not considered 'sex addiction', although the term is somewhat nebulous. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shellsunder (talk • contribs) 15:46, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
