[edit]

"Norman Whitfield did such a good job, that he not only established the rhythm of the action, but its atmosphere, tone and feel. It generates such positive energy, that in the end all of the virtues that appear combined with the vices of the fast, consumerist and violent urban life, as well as the suffering of some of the characters, come to the fore: love, compassion, tolerance, patience, solidarity, friendship, happiness. That makes 'Car Wash' a joyful and universal parable of survival in the latter days of capitalism. And that is not an easy achievement for a little film, directed by an African-American and aimed at a very reduced population."

Is it just me, or does this sound more like a movie review than a synopsis?

Agreed...trying to find a better description right now--Williamsburgland (talk) 05:22, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I've done a preliminary rewrite taking out the editorial commentary...if someone else could add more color to the plot, please do so.--Williamsburgland (talk) 05:34, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Car Wash.jpg

[edit]

Image:Car Wash.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 ensure 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.

Page move

[edit]

It has been proposed that Car wash be renamed and moved to Car wash (business) so that Car wash (disambiguation) can be moved to Car wash. Please discuss at Talk:Car wash.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 15:35, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
