The result of the move request was: page moved to The Night (1992 film) with The Night (film) redirecting to The Night#Film per WP:INCDAB. (closed by non-admin page mover) GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 03:44, 31 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

The Night (film) → ? – The current title is insufficiently precise. There's a 1961 film also called "The Night" currently residing at La Notte (The Night) . This film is non-English, and La Notte is non-English, so the title "The Night (film)" should redirect to the disambiguation page for The Night (disambiguation). This film should either return to its old title The Night (1992 film) or return to an older title Al-Lail (film), it cannot stay here. -- 65.94.42.219 (talk) 03:41, 23 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Move to Al-Lail (film) – The promo poster implies that the film was referred to as "Al-Lail" at the time of release in its native Syria. JE98 (talk) 03:54, 23 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
Move to The Night (1992 film) I think the current title can be easily confused for other films like Night (1930 film), and also films we have at non-english titles but which translate to "The Night" (ex La Notte). The Night (film) should redirect to the DAB per WP:INCDAB. Here are some sources I've found for "The Night" as the common name of it in English (article writers may want to take note as this article sorely needs sourcing): Arab Filmmakers of the Middle East: A Dictionary, Roots of the New Arab Film, Cinema Studies: The Key Concepts, Arab Cinema: History and Cultural Identity. -- Netoholic @ 04:04, 23 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
