Talk:Grace of My Heart

Singer

The female singer in the movie may also have been influenced by Dusty Springfield. 67.10.133.121 18:45, 31 December 2006 (UTC)

If that's a reference to Kelly Porter, I agree. Like Lesley Gore, Dusty Springfield is known for being lesbian, and sung several Goffin-King hits. (The dramatic orchestration heard in the movie bears some resemblance to songs such as "You don't own me".) Kelly Porter is depicted as rather bubblegum-based, though, and I believe in that time, Dusty was mostly seen and marketed as a classy soul singer. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 00:33, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

Please CITE information and do not add Original Research

The article is full of unsourced statements which, no matter how apparently true they may seem to the Wiki author, are nonetheless opinions only and amount to Original Research unless sourced and cited. Please add inline citations to each of the claims in the article. Thank you! Softlavender (talk) 09:26, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

I concur. while i have absolutely no doubt as to the deliberate parallels listed in the article, we need sources on it, and if the director hasnt talked about it, then its speculation. if i cant find sources, i will trim article to what we can source.

Overlong plot summary plus other issues

It's silly for a synopsis of a movie to include plot material that was deleted from the movie. If it's a deleted scene, then by definition, it's not part of the final film. I will be deleting the references in the synopsis section to deleted scenes. Also, Lesley Gore stated in an interview here that she felt badly treated by the filmmakers, and some reference ought to be given to this, as her input into the film seems to have been quite different from that implied in the article. I have no special axe to grind as I'm not a great fan of Lesley Gore and I quite like this movie, but this is not a good article as it stands. The synopsis is overly detailed and there is a lack of referencing. Lexo (talk) 23:42, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

The Riptides' actors

The actors who play musicians of the Riptides during the recording of the Pickle Song are portrayed by members of the alternative rock band Redd Kross (Jeffrey and Steve McDonald and Brian Reitzell). J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr provides the vocals of the song, but is seen as recording engineer. See http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116442/fullcredits?ref_=tt_cl_sm#cast for reference.--Einar Moses Wohltun (talk) 08:54, 24 December 2014 (UTC)
