Evaluation of Film, July 16
[edit]- Name of article: (Four Sheets to the Wind)
Lead Section
[edit]- The lead is nice, short, and concise. It gives just enough information to know what the article is about. There maybe could be a little more information.
Plot Synopsis
[edit]- The Plot section is a very short paragraph. It's more like a short description of the movie you might see on a TV Channel Guide. It gives a broad outline of the plot.
Cast
[edit]- This section includes the real names of the main characters in the movie. I'm pretty sure that this is what the cast section should look like for this film.
Production
[edit]- This section only answers the questions of who came up with the idea to write the film (Sterlin Harjo). It mentions one thing about why the movie was written the way it was. It's missing a lot of information about production.
Release
[edit]- There is no release section.
Reception
[edit]- This section is quite detailed. It tells that the film premiered at a film festival, and it goes over the different reviews it got from notable critics. There is no information about how much money it made, but probably because it didn't premiere in theaters.
Others
[edit]- 'Bold text'Awards and Nominations''''Bold text - This section is a table that displays all of the awards and nominations that the movie received, along with the director and actors in the movie.
Categories
[edit]- The categories section is filled out and accurate.
Infobox
[edit]- The Infobox is very well laid out and has lots of pertinent information.
