Speculable?

First sentence, final paragraph of the Plot section: what on earth does speculable mean? I haven't been able to find a reference to it, even using Google... FromageTheDog (talk) 16:10, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It's possible to find it using Google. It's the adjective form of the verb "speculate", that is, something that can be speculated. --Leonardo T. Oliveira (talk) 00:49, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Georg Friedrich.

The Georg Friedrich link in the cast list takes you to a page of a German nobleman who died in 1603, I thought it a little strange that he should appear in The Piano Teacher several hundred years later.

Needless to say, I understand that there has been a mistake with the links, perhaps there is no entry for the actor and the Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach was the closest thing. I'm not sure how to fix it so I'll leave this comment here and a similar one on the Georg Friedrich entry and hopefully it can be sorted out!

Yes, obviously two different people! I've altered the link so that it points to Georg Friedrich (actor). Thanks Nothingbutmeat. --A bit iffy 08:18, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The shards of glass

When Erika hide shards of glass inside one of that girl's coat pockets, she obviously does so because her mother had already alerted her that she wouldn't let her students surpass her, specially in Schubert and Schumann. That girl was playing Schubert in a manner that touched Erika, and that's why she did it. The contact of that girl with Walter was very circunstantial, it makes no sense to think that it was this kind of jealousy. Let's correct it. --Leonardo T. Oliveira (talk) 00:40, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I do think that Walter's contact with Anna was significant to Erika; why else would the film show her watching them practice together right before she storms out and puts the glass in Anna's pockets? Honestly, I think both interpretations are equally valid in a movie with no concrete exposition, but the Plot section is not really the place for speculation on Erika's motives. --User:Traumallama (talk) 22:26, 18 October 2012 (EST)

The result of the move request was: page moved as technical request -- JHunterJ (talk) 16:55, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Piano Teacher (2001 film) → The Piano Teacher (film) – The last page move took no account of WP:NCF, or indeed, did that user bother to fix the mess they created. There is no other film (yet) with this name, so no year disambig is needed. See also the clusterfuck at the novel's talkpage. Lugnuts (talk) 13:36, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support as straightforward. If no other film exists by the name, no need for that level of dabbing. Secret of success (talk) 15:40, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Support as per naming guidelines. Actually you don't need to propose a move for this page, since it is a straightforward disambig correction. Betty Logan (talk) 16:25, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

2nd paragraph of plot section is not descriptive of the movie

The paragraph does not speak to the plot but to the elements of the movie in an editorial fashion. Needs to be cut or edited to be part of a summary of the content of the film. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tzigrrl (talk • contribs) 05:07, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
