Talk:Still (film)

Hi there, I would like to add a few positive reviews to the page (without removing the negative ones). Would be possible to lower the pages protection so that I may do this? Or could I send the reviews to an editor to them in please?

Adding reviews to the STILL film page

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined. Some or all of the changes weren't supported by neutral, independent, reliable sources. Consider re-submitting with content based on media, books and scholarly works.

What I think should be changed:

Please add reviews to RECEPTION section:

1) “Utterly absorbing…totally engaging...Simon Blake asks hard questions and asks them beautifully. He is one to watch...” Daniel Woburn, Close-Up Film 4/5

2) "An impressively powerful piece of work, uncomfortable but utterly riveting." Freda Cooper, Talking Pictures 4/5

3) “STILL is one of the most assured pieces of filmmaking I’ve seen in quite some time......Keep an eye on this film maker as STILL promises great things ahead” Joel Wicklund, Chicagoist

4) “Still is a great film, hypnotic and compelling. This is a film I’d recommend to anyone looking for a drama with a tragic arc, and serious real stakes” Bernardo Villela, The Movie Rat 9/10

5) "One of the most surprising, gritty and impressive British films I've seen in a long time." Rob Aldam, Backseat Mafia

6) “Still is chiefly a gripping, exceptionally performed drama, anchored by a standout turn from Gillen” Eric Hills, The Movie Waffler 4/5

7) “It nails the uncertain atmosphere of a city in flux…Gillen is superb.” Wendy Ide, The Times 4/5

Why it should be changed:

This section is not reflective of all the critic responses recieved by the film. Please can you add the reviews attached.

References

The only source that would be considered reliable in that list is The Times. It's paywalled but can probably be accessed through The Wikipedia Library. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:28, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

May I ask why the other sources are not considered reliable? They are all from critics who attended a screening of the film.

In the meantime could you please add the Times review as the first review on the Reception section. FifiO83 (talk) 10:40, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@FifiO83: Most of the sources seem to be blogs. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 14:40, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
