Harta Berdarah[edit]

Created by Crisco 1492 (talk). Self nominated at 11:02, 13 May 2014 (UTC).

  • Date and length ok. The Eid sentence needs a direct reference. But is 'action film' really an apt translation of 'schlager'? I understand it more like 'hit movie'. --Soman (talk) 11:17, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
  • (edit conflict) Date, size, refs, all fine. I'd however propose a more clear ALT2, below. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:19, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
  • ALT2 ... that Union Films' Harta Berdarah, advertised as a "beautiful Indonesian action film", was released during Eid al-Fitr holiday of 1940?
    • Wow, y'all are rushing. Will get to double referencing the eid date, and bother Drmies about "schlager". — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:22, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
    • OK--the article from the De Indische courant, 01-11-1940, says "ware en waarheidsgetrouwe film", a "true and realistic film". "Indonesische film-schlager" is cited from the Soerabaijasch handelsblad (29-10-1940), but that's an ad for the movie and I wouldn't cite it. "Schlager" in this context means something like "hit", but again, it's an ad. Sorry, I know I'm raining on someone's parade. Drmies (talk) 14:40, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
      • Drmies, it's being used to say "the film was advertised as". Valid use of an advertisement. Hit here being box-office hit? — Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:37, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
        • OK. Yes, "box-office hit", that's fair. But "prachtig"--maybe "magnificent" is more better. Drmies (talk) 16:47, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
          • I like that. This is why you're the doctor and I'm but a lowly M.A. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:02, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
            • Well, you know, we all do what we can. Drmies (talk) 18:25, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
          • Note to reviewers: I've edited ALT1 above. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 17:03, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
            • For alt1, the hook now checks out with ref. --Soman (talk) 19:15, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
