- Comment: "Pink film" is not a generally recognized term, but I thought it sounds intriguing and suggestive enough that an inquiring reader might get its general meaning from the context of the hook.

The criteria are met and no copyvio detected. The hook is also cited to gaycinema.info, which looks like a self-published source but is in fact run by the distributor, so I guess it's an acceptable primary source (though the claim borders on WP:EXCEPTIONAL—"one of" is doing heavy lifting). I don't have access to the book so I AGF. The writer has a PhD in Japanese cinema. A minor quibble is that the hook violates MOS:HYPHEN.
