English name edit

The english translation was listed as The Can, but IMDB has it listed as The Swindle or The Swindlers, so I went ahead and changed it. Estrose 21:29, 23 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Il bidoneIl Bidone – This is the way the title seems to appear most in the United States, Great Britain, etc. with capital B. It's also the way most similar Wikipedia articles and the internet in general capitalizes foreign films that are more distributed in original foreign language.

Il BidoneIl bidone – Above move request ignores our MOS which states "Capitalization in foreign-language titles varies, even over time within the same language; generally, retain the style of the original", thus Italian capitalisations should apply. See [1]. Italian capitalisation also used in some English-language sources, see [2][3]. Rob Sinden (talk) 11:52, 15 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Also, at the guideline WP:NCFILM, all examples of foreign language films are given using the relevant native capitalisations of the title. Previous nominator also makes a false claim that "It's also the way most similar Wikipedia articles [...] capitalizes foreign films", as is clear from a quick scan of Category:Italian drama films. --16:39, 15 January 2015 (UTC)
