Tony Blair

The Tony Blair article indicates Harron dated Blair for a (perhaps brief) period- is this worth a mention?

Changed "rich white man" to "wealthy broker" in the section on american psycho. The use of a racial adjective isn't justified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.94.247.197 (talk) 07:22, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Pointless trivia

What is the point of this piece of information: "Coincidentally, in 1989, Harron directed a Batman special for the BBC series The Late Show which charted the character's history from comic book to feature film. Years later, Christian Bale, the lead actor in American Psycho, would go on to play the title role in Batman Begins and The Dark Knight." ? I can see no justification for its inclusion in this article. 78.21.5.181 (talk) 00:24, 15 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I moved the first part of it to TV work and removed the bit about Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. --Sonicyouth86 (talk) 22:29, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article has no noticeable grammatical errors. In your introductory paragraph, the last sentence is awkward and should be rewritten. When writing the early life section, there is good information about her family but not too much about herself. If you are able to find more information on her childhood that should be added. The career section is well-developed. Consider with your award section, changing it to a table instead of a list. Lots of good and reliable sources. This article is well-written.Horrorfanxoxo231 (talk) 17:55, 30 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

This article is extremely clear and precise. It is descriptive in the work of Mary Harron and keeps the reader interested as you feel as you are reading her autobiography. You have a large variety of references to back up all the points you have made. There are no spelling or grammar mistakes and you speak very knowledgable about her work. It would be interesting if you gathered more information on Mary's early life and personal life so that the career portion does not overshadow the rest of the article. Also make sure that you are speaking unbiased and clearer in some of you sentences. Valentina valentine (talk) 03:35, 31 October 2018 (UTC) Valentina Valentine[reply]
