This is still a stub (yeah, it's 1500 characters, but 3-400 are in the lede) — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:52, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Have added some more info to bring it to 1700+. It's still brief but this film just about exists (Italian cinema before the 70s just isn't really sourced anywhere; I'm actually finding it difficult to verify the existence of some films). If that's not enough I'll see if I can maybe scrape the underside of the barrel a bit more. GRAPPLE X 15:33, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

It's a bit more solid now, although more would naturally be better. For sources, sometimes it depends what books you get. Online sourcing about early Indonesian films is nearly non-existent, but I have a book which has provided a basis for several dozen articles. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:11, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

The Dizionario del cinema Italianio series does seem promising but the entries actually dealing with films, rather than cast and crew, aren't viewable online. If I can pick those volumes up cheap it might help; and if this film ever gets a DVD release then naturally there'll be DVD reviews, etc, to work with (the wide release of the Nude per l'assassino DVDs and blu-rays is probably what helped that article get to GA status the most).

Yeah, those kindsa things can really pick it up... assuming the industry has DVD review sites (haven't found any for Indonesia, just citing a release date is a nightmare). That series sounds useful, good luck to you. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:21, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
