EDIT: Article fits DYK requirements as far as I know: I did not notice any copyright violations, the hook is stated and sourced, there is adequate sourcing/citing (one inline citation per paragraph), article seems to be written from a NPOV, article meets minimum character requirement, and the article fits requirements of newness (last updated March 27 as of March 28).

 * I found one possible hook issue: the phrase "upcoming film" could be replaced by "film currently in production" or "film in production." You never know if the film is delayed and is never released- better to be on the safe side and say what state it is in right now. You could then need to update your hook and the first line in your article. The second thing is just a minor touch: perhaps put the picture at the very top of the article; or even better, replace it with a poster or picture of the actual movie. Article is new, good length and within policy. QPQ is good. Jdanbeck (talk) 16:29, 19 March 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure about changing "upcoming film" in the article, as that is the usual term applied to films that have yet to be released, but have been/are being filmed. I have provided another ALT below featuring "currently in production" though. At the moment there is no poster or picture from the film. As the infobox dominates the top half of the article, I think the image needs to be further down, plus it is relevant to the production section (more so than cast or plot). But I don't think the position of the image in the article is part of the DYK criteria, unless it's being used in the hook. - JuneGloom07    Talk  19:31, 27 March 2015 (UTC)


 * ALT2:... that Whit Stillman's Love and Friendship, currently in production, is based on Jane Austen's epistolary novel Lady Susan?


 * I'll keep the "in production" / "upcoming" thing up there as a comment. I wasn't aware there was a norm so that's fine. You're right on the picture, that was a comment and my bad for putting it with review (its deleted now). I updated my review, and all is good by me! Jdanbeck (talk) 16:00, 28 March 2015 (UTC)
