GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Lipstick and Dynamite, Piss and Vinegar: The First Ladies of Wrestling/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Everything's looking really good at this point, and there are only a couple of little issues that need addressing:

By the 1940s, however, American men had to leave -- I think we can do away with the "however" because this isn't actually contrasting anything with the 30s, since it wasn't mentioned that men were, well, there.

"Plot" implies fiction, so "Synopsis" may be a better heading.
- Done Nikki311 18:13, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The film also covers their post-wrestling employment: lion-tamer, detective, nurse, and yodeler -- using the word "employment" we'd have lion-taming, yodeling, etc. so either change as necessary or use a word like "occupation" instead of employment.

It had several other premieres -- these ones aren't really premieres, are they? Unless it's the Atlanta premiere or Chicago premiere, which is kind of lame. Is "screenings" a better word?
- Done Nikki311 18:13, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The film premiered in 2004 at various film festivals across the United States -- Actually, I hear Canada's not actually one of the 50 states ;) It did have its world premiere in Canada, so perhaps add in that it first screened in Toronto.
- Done lol. Nikki311 18:13, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Is there a source for the New York Daily News comment?
- Done - I have no idea where that came from and can't find it, so I removed it. Nikki311 18:23, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Karie Bible of IGN called the film but Liz Braun of the Toronto Sun calls the film -- sweep through for tense consistency.

I assume Ebert's rating was out of 5, maybe add that in.

I think that's all, and sorry for being so picky about things! I guess you know you've got a week, you know how the system works (probably a lot better than I do!) and good luck :) —97198 talk 13:20, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and is there a source for the film often being referred to as just Lipstick and Dynamite? —97198 talk 13:24, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think I got everything! Thanks for the review. Nikki311 18:23, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Awesome stuff, I'm happy to go ahead and pass it. —97198 talk 07:17, 28 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
