5x expanded by Gulbenk (talk) and Ashlark (talk). Nominated by Gulbenk (talk) at 07:14, 6 April 2020 (UTC).
Article is long enough and has been expanded 5x within 7 days of nomination, no copyvio detected, both hooks are interesting (I prefer the first one) and supported by proper sources cited inline, citations okay, QPQ done. I would suggest linking the name of the director in the hook. A bit off-topic but I think it would be good if the lead (and if possible the 'Plot') is expanded a bit to give a complete picture of the article for the convenience of readers. 'Plot' has a big space after the single line in the section.. any reason for that? Sainsf (talk · contribs) 14:53, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
