Talk:There Be Dragons

Controversy removed
I've removed the following part from the end of the introduction, as it is a doublette of what is written in the controvery section and, in addition, as it is unsourced. --Túrelio (talk) 21:54, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Controversy has affected There Be Dragons, not just because of the controversy surrounding Opus Dei itself, but also because of ex-members of Opus Dei who accuse the film of being a propaganda of Opus Dei, while others have seen it as a mere response of Opus Dei to The Da Vinci Code. Joffe and other producers have denied these.

Reactions
There need to be sources for that section. If not, it needs to be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patavinus1490 (talk • contribs) 21:35, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I have removed it. If someone actually claimed that the film is propaganda, they hid this claim rather well. patsw (talk) 23:54, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

International brigades?
The group of Republican fighters Manolo and Olga Kurylenko's character join looks more like the Durruti column (anarchists) than the international Brigades (Communists.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 148.87.19.198 (talk) 00:01, 19 December 2012 (UTC)

Paragraph removed
The following paragraph was moved by me from the article to here, as it is a word-by-word copy from the cited source and thereby likely a copyvio, as theaustralian.com.au is not under a free license. --Túrelio (talk) 10:47, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Controversial facts
Director Roland Joffe has been accused of making a $34million propaganda film funded by members of Opus Dei. During the shooting, a spokesman for Opus Dei denied There Be Dragons is its film, although an Opus Dei priest, Father John Wauck, was an on-set adviser during the shooting.

Joffe confirmed that the film had been funded by a member of Opus Dei, the independent Hollywood film producer Heriberto Schoeffer.

Joffe said he had torn up the original script, written by a former nun, to make it more like Indiana Jones, the Steven Spielberg action movie franchise. Schoeffer said he had offered it first to Hugh Hudson, the director of Chariots of Fire, who rejected the project because the script was too "pro-Franco".

Opus Dei defectors who have been watching the filming allege in their blogs that There Be Dragons is still "dark Dei propaganda".
