The critical reception section sounds like it desperately defending the film

More negative reviews should be included to balance it out. Neocorelight (Talk) 08:35, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I think it does a solid job: the reviews are polarizing. We say that in lede. Inspector Semenych (talk) 16:03, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Standing ovation minute length (7 or 10 minutes?)

Did the film receive a 7 or 10-minute standing ovation? Numerous sources vary. So which one is it?

7 minutes:

10 minutes:

The most important question is, why does it need to be added at all? Mike Allen 18:16, 20 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Critical Reception section may lean too heavily toward early industry screening reactions

I feel that the critical reception section needs updating: it includes too much regarding the first industry screening, not enough Cannes reaction. We have a lot of those now - some pull-quotes would be nice. Inspector Semenych (talk) 18:45, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not accurate

This is not accurate, "mayor Franklyn Cicero" because Cicero explicitly says "not Franklin" but more likely "Frank" from Francis. 50.4.132.185 (talk) 05:57, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Typo
