The Neighbor (1993 film)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Fails WP:NFO and WP:NFSOURCES. Has only one review from Dennis Schwartz. Needs two or more reviews/significant sources in order to be eligible. Besides the Schwartz review, I found no other reviews in Rotten Tomatoes and nothing else on a WP:BEFORE search. The Film Creator (talk) 15:20, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * What I found here was this that looks significant. TV Guide is not. Then there are papers. The film was blurbed in many newspapers, but a more review-y source is the film column in The Vancouver Sun of 12 November 1993, also syndicated to, Calgary Herald, Edmonton Journal, The Ottawa Citizen. Finally, the movie is covered by five paragraphs in the article "Unnecessary violence in film irks Steiger", Star-Phoenix (Saskatoon) 13 November 1992, i.e. while filming.

 * I found this: https://www.allmovie.com/movie/the-neighbor-v34741 with a 3-star rating. It looks significant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ViajeroLibre (talk • contribs) 17:08, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep The sources that various editors have found are sufficient to determine that the film is notable, and I think that this encyclopedia should have an article about each movie that an Oscar winning actor like Rod Steiger starred in. Cullen328  Let's discuss it  17:50, 18 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep per sources provided above. Note that despite having a notable lead actor, that in itself does not make the film notable as notability is WP:NOTINHERITED. That said, the sources provided give this film enough coverage to pass WP:NFO. Qwaiiplayer (talk) 12:13, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
