 * Symbol question.svg New enough✅ - promoted to GA on September 3, nominated same day. Long enough✅ over 1500 characters. Hook:✅ cited, accurate, short and interesting. Images✅ Public Domain. Within policy ?: No close paraphrasing issues but some factual accuracy issues: the last statement: "The film is presumed lost because the film is not known to be held in any archive or by any collector" is not verified by the link given. Perhaps overlooked in the GA review? Who exactly presumes it lost, an authority or a wikipedian? --Animalparty! (talk) 20:04, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
