Talk:The Handmaid's Tale (film)

Fair use rationale for Image:TheHandmaidsTale.png
Image:TheHandmaidsTale.png 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 insure 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.

Overtagging
I removed the tag claiming the plot summary was "original research" as inappropriate, as there's nothing different between this summary and the many others. Plot summaries are not in any conceivable way OR as they are simply descriptions of an existing work (and are thus, therefore, verifiable through reading or viewing said work). OR is new information never published before, or unverified claims. The summary contains neither. I'm tempted to take the OR tag off the "differences between book and film" section too, however Wikipedia is more anal when it comes to these sorts of sections, so I've left it be. 68.146.81.123 (talk) 23:43, 28 June 2009 (UTC)

Obviously, this is not so much about the movie as about Pinter's difficulties with it. What was his actual problem? What sort of 'tinkering" did he reject? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.114.156.97 (talk) 18:02, 22 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Pinter "declined to claim it as his work, saying that it had been considerably altered," according to a piece in The Atlantic. Also, Natasha Richardson said Pinter “has something specific against voiceovers,” again according to The Atlantic piece:  https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2015/03/the-forgotten-handmaids-tale/388514/ - 50.80.242.31 (talk) 02:46, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Beginning of plot
The road is paved and the man doesn't have a rifle, so I've made a few minor changes accordingly. Bret Sterling (talk) 01:37, 27 March 2022 (UTC)
