The Godfather
editRobert Evans did not produce "The Godfather." According to the film's credits, the producer was Albert S. Ruddy. Evans was the head of production at Paramount Pictures, which made The Godfather.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.248.225.251 (talk) 05:53, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
missing information
editIt would seem like his troubles in the 1980s should be covered in the article including his drug conviction, the circumstances of his departure of Paramount and the disaster that was "Cotton Club". I mean "the kid stays in the picture" is a sanitized version of his life, but this article is even more sanitized. It reads as if it were written by a PR firm. 174.46.28.58 (talk) 22:39, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
Photo, please!
editThis article needs a photo. --RThompson82 (talk) 01:59, 9 April 2012 (UTC) HOW DID HE DIE?
Kid Notorious
editKid Notorious merits a re-mention in the "Evans as a character" section, perhaps. 142.129.56.146 (talk) 17:36, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

Requested move 12 April 2016
edit- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: Moved as proposed. There is a small consensus, with no opposition, that the producer is the primary topic. — Amakuru (talk) 10:22, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
– Because the producer is the primary topic. I can't link a whole pageviews thing, because there's far more than 10, but this guy is the most viewed in spades, with 166,416 hits. The second most viewed article? The dab, sitting at 24,309, which I think proves the producer is the most known. Long-term significance should not be an issue as this guy did most of his notable work ages ago, starting in the 1960s when he became head of production at Paramount and then brought films like The Godfather to screens.

- Support - this seems very reasonable, especially given those page view counts. Korny O'Near (talk) 17:42, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
