Jack Finney

[edit]

For the moment, I moved the reference to Jack Finney's "Contents of a Dead Man's Pockets" to a trivia section I created, but I'm inclined to argue that, while the stories have a similar premise, there's not really any reason to cite Finney's on this page - I don't see any evidence of one having inspired the other in my quick Googlings. But I'm pretty new at this, and I hesitate to just go ahead and delete. Thoughts? Chaoticfluffy (talk) 18:57, 2 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Tall Building

[edit]

Perhaps the plot summary should indicate that the ledge was on the 50th floor (or whatever number) of the building. I think that gives a better sense of the story context, fear, and suspense. If anyone knows the correct number from the short story, can you please add it in? Thanks. (JosephASpadaro 17:28, 30 July 2007 (UTC))[reply]

2 New Films

[edit]

Anybody wants to note the 2 new films coming out with an interesting relation to a ledge of a tall building? Both "The Ledge" and "Man on a Ledge" don't have any mention of being based on this story. Weird, huh? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.64.114.166 (talk) 21:04, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
