Fair use rationale for Image:Three the Hard Way.jpg

Image:Three the Hard Way.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Excessive detail

There is quite a bit of text currently in this article that (while it may be factual) is not appropriate for inclusion in an article about this film. (Much of it would be better placed in other articles.) For instance:

The 1960s provided much of the social events and culture that lead to the development of the blaxploitation genre. The Civil Rights movement, Vietnam War, assassinations of Malcolm X, Martin Luther King Jr. and the Kennedys, and the inner-city race riots of Watts, Detroit and Newark magnified the need for tolerance and unity among Americans. Along with these events, the Black Power movement brought black culture and customs to the forefront of the American eye. White Americans were cautious but also intrigued and developed and appreciation by black culture especially hairstyles, fashion, catchphrases, and music. This push towards the inclusion of black culture into popular culture allowed for black films to be marketed to the general public. Featuring black themes and black casts, films like Who’s Coming to Dinner (1967) and The Dirty Dozen (1967) and actors like Sidney Poitier and Jim Brown were well-received and became Hollywood stars.
