Ray Harryhausen: Movement Into Life

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Non notable short film, fails WP:NFILM. No usable reviews found.

PROD removed with rationale, "This article meets the Wikipedia criteria for reliable, independent secondary sources independent of the topic and the author. The film is both notable and worthy of notice."

I fail to see how the ref-bomb of links to screenings makes the film notable. Being show at a festival or even in a regular theater does not in itself, make a film notable. Donald D23  talk to me  19:18, 22 December 2022 (UTC)

Delete: The film has no critical commentary from film critics that I could find. Per WP:NFP, "If a topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article or stand-alone list. the article just different releases and use quite a lot of primary sources. Also as stated by WP:NFO, "To presume notability, reliable sources should have significant coverage. Examples of coverage insufficient to fully establish notability include newspaper listings of screening times and venues, "capsule reviews", plot summaries without critical commentary, or listings in comprehensive film guides such as Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide, Time Out Film Guide, or the Internet Movie Database."

 * Delete I went looking for contemporary secondary source coverage of the film from the era it released, and got nothing through a Global Newstream and Newspapers.com search. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs  talk 19:54, 22 December 2022 (UTC)
