WP:NOTABILITY - this is WP:AUTOBIO of writer/director of a film that had a brief release (released in July for home video in August). Gnews finds one interview for him, in local paper where film was made. (Movie has zero reviews on RottenTomatoes.) Nat Gertler (talk) 20:54, 19 August 2012 (UTC) Nominator switches stance to Keep - sufficient sources have been put forth that WP:GNG has been met. Article still faces tagged concerns, but need not be deleted. --Nat Gertler (talk) 13:09, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
