Talk:The Confession (1999 film)

Year of Film

I believe this film was made in 1998, not 1999 as indicated in the article's title. The DVD was released 3 August 1999 (http://www.amazon.com/The-Confession-Ben-Kingsley/dp/6305476098) but you can read online reviews by normal moviegoers (not pre-release, media reviews) written in 1998 (http://www.epinions.com/review/mvie_mu-1088005/content_455132679812?sb=1). So I believe the title of this article is in error.

I've never changed an article's title and hesitate to do so without researching the ramifications of that (broken links, etc.). I can't research it now but will later, if someone more knowledgeable about changing articles titles doesn't handle it first. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Salon Essahj (talk • contribs) 19:27, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

@Salon Essahj: We want to use the release year of the film, and I can try to find out if it was released at all in 1998. Reviewing your link, it looks like the three reviews mentioned were written in 2000, 2001, and 2008. Where is the 1998 review? Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 19:36, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

@Erik: You're correct, I misread the year of the first view. Only off by a decade! Further research confirms the film was released in theaters on 22 January 1999 (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1088005-confession/). So the article title is correct as is.
