"The film stirred some Danish politicians because it contains a scene wherein an action is described as an execution of wounded Taliban soldiers^[1]. "

I have read the Danish reference and listened to the film clip published together with the reference. I am not convinced that the quote is accurate. (And note that the Danish wiki-article, does not have information similar to the above quote.)

If this quote is to go back into the article, than it must be accompanied by the danish words that were used in the movie. And then we can argue about possible translations of that text.

I agree with the above. In the synopsis there are several quotes from the English subtitles in the DVD release 1 'neutralize them' 2 liquidate 'in the most humane way possible' 3 'finished off' with 30-40 shots. If an editor can provide the original Danish then so much the better 81.178.38.169 (talk) 10:09, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Basic copy edit[edit]

I've provided a basic copy-edit of the material as I found it. By all means revert / edit as needed if it's not thought useful. Really the article needs a rewrite, worthy though the existing attempt is worthy. 81.178.38.169 (talk) 23:21, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Other films by the director and external links[edit]

I'm not sure these can be relevant but I'm not prepared to delete or amend on my own iniative. Surely they would be more appropiate in an article about the director rather than here? 81.178.38.169 (talk) 23:21, 4 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

yes, they were not about the same topic, only by the same director.

Genre change[edit]

User VictorChristensen (or so I believe it was him from what I can understand of the History tab) has made the interesting and telling contribution of changing the genre from 'war documentary' to 'war film' which is a change of emphasis I do personally sympathise with and which on reflection I think is indeed a more accurate representation of this peculiarly disturbing film. I don't feel disposed to revert his edit but it does I think need pointing out on the talk page and I did correct the grammar :-). 81.178.38.169 (talk) 21:36, 31 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
