Source 📝

4226:- A non-notable professor that wrote an article not focused on the film is not a reliable source that should be given weight in light of 2 widely-accepted reliable sources (Entertainment Weekly, Roger Ebert) plus the film's distributor stating Chicago. The rundown above is perfectly reasonable, but it is not a reliable source per se for a definite statement on a NYC setting. As indicated in the above section, such is an analysis and synthesis of a primary source (that evidently does not explicitly state NYC is the setting of the narrative, as opposed to just the filming location). The physical clues given by the film that the characters are in NYC (badges, license plates, etc) should be noted in the article but the reliable, secondary sources that state Chicago should also be cited. It it best to not append editor POV and only present what the primary source depicts and what the secondary sources say. I agree with TonyTheTiger's suggestion on what the article may say, with the exception of "A, B and C sources claim that the film was set in NYC". That is if the setting of the film is as important as all this discussion would lead one to believe. Otherwise, just the primary source description and a mention that it is an adaption of a play on "a group of Chicago real-estate salesmen" would suffice. 3039:
people will mostly ignore (check the 'net for all the discussions of people trying to figure out the title of the movie when the place names are mentioned in the film). The upshot here is that I think there is very good reason to question what some people feel is "obvious" (especially when various conclusions are drawn from that information). I also believe the film makers were not particularly concerned with establishing a location. Again, in a film or lit class, sit around for hours discussing it. You'll come up with airtight cases for "facts" that turn out to be wrong. In my life, I've had three completely unrelated classes (two different high schools' lit classes and one undergrad class) that presented the supposed censorship theme in
4483:. The overwhelming majority of sources do not specify a city. I remain convinced the choice of city simply isn't relevant (if it is, the lack of reliable sources discussing the hypothesized change from Chicago to NYC is puzzling). The insistence on including the claim -- which I feel is a mistake -- seems to push us to core policy: "When reliable sources disagree, present what the various sources say, give each side its due weight, and maintain a neutral point of view....Base articles on reliable, third-party, published sources with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy....Do not analyze, synthesize, interpret, or evaluate material found in a primary source yourself..." ( 2200:
important to know why the three of them think the articles they watchlist and edit are perfectly fine and need no improvements. My comments meant nothing other than, "Why do you think that?" I wasn't making accusations or pointing a finger their direction. I think it's a legitimate question to ask and I assure you there's no malice behind it. I'm not talking about who did what to whom (as you have repeated and accused us all of numerous times now). I note you are not an administrator, and you did kind of pop in out of the blue, so I have to wonder why you are acting like a mediator on steroids. Perhaps you could assume a little good faith yourself?

Hollywood studios, and this is irrelevant. More to the point, a substantial number of films set in various cities in the eastern US, including both New York and Chicago, are actually filmed in Toronto, because the architecture in the old neighborhoods is similar, and it's more financially practical for various reasons. It just doesn't matter where the film was shot. Finally, it's fairly likely that the location was left vague on purpose, because the film is entirely fictional, not a representation of specific historical events. I'd be surprised if some film critic or film study sources don't make this observation explicitly.

the time those secondary sources are to assert information for which a primary source might be unreliable. But you don't need a published review by a film critic asserting that Schwartzenegger said "I'll be back" to know that he said that, nor do you need a film critic confirming that a telephone booth clearly labeled as a New York telephone booth was in the movie to mention it, the movie itself is uncontroversial and verifiable proof that this is the case, so in this case I think citing the movie's visual elements as a verifiable source that the movie takes place in NYC is entirely appropriate. And if all else fails,

overwhelming majority of sources I've looked at simply don't mention it (in stark contrast to articles about the play). I found two professional reviews that mentioned the setting and a plot summary from the distributor. They say Chicago. They might be wrong. I don't know. You found a professor from a tiny college writing about masculinity (a dominant theme, it seems, of the film, not that it shows in this article) who says New York City. Whatever. Put them both in, cite the sources that say it. Add in that it was filmed in NYC and cite the

there is no "White Plains" in the greater Chicago area (to which Aaronow refers in spoken dialogue, making it clear that his character is aware of what is already obvious to the viewer: that they are in New York City). Finally, these are not elements of location background (as in Die Hard) -- they are foreground props intentionally furnished by the director for the purpose of making a statement about setting. And, critically, they are all consistent with each other throughout the film in affirming that New York is the setting.

but does not establish the action as occurring there. I also see other editors who believe it is set in Chicago and/or NYC (here, on IMDb and elsewhere). To this point, I have not seen a reliable source say either. I have not seen any indication that it is relevant (you say it is, another editor said it isn't, I'm neutral). New York/NYC and Chicago have been repeatedly added, removed and reverted. IMDb has been claimed for both. Details in the film have been claimed for both. I think we've reached a point where

why they think NY is an error (or vice versa). Then we have a controversy, and cannot pick a side in it. If the writer who favored a different location from everyone else gave no reason for their choice, it's probably just a mistake on their part. We're not bound to mention in this (or any other) article every variant viewpoint that cannot be explained, even if we're also not in a position to declare well-reasoned arguments for position A to be superior to those for position B (which is also a
3623:). New York and Chicago have a generic, gritty East Coast city "look". In many ways they are interchangeable. I see no real evidence that the film's setting is New York and that should not be altered however, this is just as notable as the American Graffiti trivia and should be mentioned if reliable sources are used reference any claim that is likely to be challenged. if there is no secondary commentary, summary or analysis of the comparison, it is original research to add the content.-- 4688:
rights is responsible for creating their own artwork and verbiage for the DVD jacket (work they may do in-house or subcontract to a design firm). The original film production company (which in this case is dissolved, so we are dealing with whatever successor corporation is the current copyright holder) might demand the right to review the DVD jacket for legal issues before it is released, but that hardly equates the blurb with any kind of statement by the film's creative team. -
334: 313: 2572:. That one character has a haircut that is pretty old fashioned for 1984 New York. Whatever. If this were a comparative lit class, we could discuss it all until our ears bled. If the comparison between Chicago and NYC is a critical piece of the comparison of the play and the film, a reliable source will have discussed it. Unless you have a direct citation of Chicago -- not something you believe can only be Chicago -- I'm going to Wisconsin. - 21: 344: 4825:

It seems beyond just a coincidence, since an American audience can notice that even the Welsh actor

You seem to be creating a situation where the only thing in a primary source that could possibly convince you of the setting of any film is either (a) a title card which says "New York City, 1992", (b) a statement by the director, or (c) a main character saying, "Here we are, in the great City of New

do a wide open shot of the skyline because that would be contrary to the theme of the film about these men being trapped and hemmed in. Notice that all of the shots are close shots.) And a screen title card that says, "New York City, 1993" is asking for a level of proof that is never used in motion

Ha ha. Probably a good idea! It would certainly avoid arguments like this. Well, the presence of a New York City police cruiser (not in background but as a foreground prop placed there by the director) among many other elements says "New York" as clearly as any skyline shot. If that isn't enough,

There seems to be some ongoing disagreement about the city in which the film was set. This movie was set (and filmed on location) in New York City. This is in contrast to David Mamet's play, which was set in Chicago, and it makes for an interesting distinction between the film and the play.
