the suggested word count limit. To take the argument to the extreme, the WP article is not meant to be a substitute for watching the film. I agree with you on the final sentence, though: it helps to know that
Martins is risking missing his flight. Perhaps this is the one motivational detail that deserves to make it into this summary, due to the length and intensity of the final scene. I will try to re-insert this fact in the most objective possible way. If I were you I wouldn't worry too much about the disagreements between editors, since everybody in this case is behaving constructively and the differences in opinion are minor. This is a picnic compared to some articles I have worked on! --
306:]. This was reverted without explanation; when I asked for one on the talk page, pointing out that "Holly has made some sacrifice to stay behind after the funeral, which makes snubbing of him the more cutting", I was told "It's a summary, not a blow by blow account of what has happened in each scene". I thought it over for over a day, then came and reread the "Plot" and attempted to at least clarify those points of the plot which seemed unnecessarily befogged by the cutting process, thus

293:. At the moment there's something of an aching disagreement between a number of editors (of whom I would now include myself) and an apparently well-esconced though relatively new arrival over the article - specifically its "Plot". I have been impressed by what I have seen of your sensitive editing of the "Plot" of

I've looked more closely at the recent edits and the present summary is quite good. I understand your desire to communicate the atmosphere as well as the action, but many editors will consider this to be subjective and I understand why they have reverted your additions even though you are well within

Would you mind having a look at what is happening with this article, and the "Plot" section in particular, and letting me know if there's some sensible way of improving this situation; or if you think I am going about things the wrong way, do let me know.

Hi, Heron, we've not 'met' before but I see you were on Aesop and Aesop's Fables today performing some very canny edits which deserve complimenting.

Hi Alfie. Films like this deserve our best effort. I shall certainly have a look at the article and see if I can help, although I am a bit busy right now. My first thought, without having looked at the article recently, is that perhaps we need a mechanical plot summary followed by a section on

Several past editors, who have similarly attempted to make the plot reflect the character of the film rather than an unhelpful and jejune summary of no use to either newcomer or aficionado, have evidently been driven away by an obdurate policy to make

Well, thanks for having a look - and I approve of your amendment at the end. It did need something more there; I wonder if perhaps I might return and reinstate Harry's "disappearance" following the doorway scene. Anyway, thanks again.
