Fair use rationale for Image:Fuller.jpg

Image:Fuller.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 13:01, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Autobiography

Fuller's autobio, published some years after his death is amazing. The salient factor of his life is his early start. Because he was working in newspapers in the 1920s while still a teenager, he might have been in 1997 one of the last living people to have worked with Arthur Brisbane, through whom he met William Randolph Hearst, etc.

That a friend of Gene Fowler, a man I associate with pre-WWII characters, even roaring twenties people like Walker, was still around then is also amazing; I wish I had met Samuel FullerJrm2007 (talk) 07:06, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Order of material

Isn't the material on the film White Dog in the wrong place, and a bit diffuse?Sayerslle (talk) 02:39, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you think it should be split between his biographical section and the career section? I've done that to give it a try. What do you mean by diffuse? -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 02:43, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think you've put the 'White Dog' material in the right place now. The article reads better now. By diffuse I just meant it seemed a bit over detailed.Sayerslle (talk) 00:50, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

I removed Dead Pigeon on Beethoven Street, because it was an episode of a German cop show, and not a film. The page for that episode has a link to the Internet Movie Database, which shows that it is part of the German cop show, Tatort.bruvensky (talk) 20:20, 4 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It also isn't that good, really. Too much of a comic strip (perhaps a response to Mr. Freedom by William Klein? Just a wild guess). Forty years ago, I read a lot about Fuller, but of course haven't kept up, so a lot of stuff in this article was new to me. Great work.

Novels

Sappho's Flucht, a german pb original thriller was published 1982 (or 1986?) by Ullstein.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 19:45, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Born Michal Filler; born in Russia, in 1911; birthdate 1912 and birthplace wrong

I've just read on Jonathan Rosenbaum's blog, in an re-issue of his April 2017 Sight and Sound review of Marsha Gordon's Oxford U. P. monograph: ''Film Is Like a Battleground'', that (M. Gordon found out) Fuller was NOT born in 1912, but sometimes, somewhere in 1911. He came, named Michal Filler, to the USA on the S. S. Canada, from Wladimir, Russia in 1913 aged 1 and a half years old.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 10:52, 17 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
