Would it be useful per WP:NPOV ad WP:CRIT to eliminate that section entirely per the tag? I have moved some of the content into the chronology of the page as a starting point. IndrasBet (talk) 15:39, 5 November 2025 (UTC)Reply

Edit Request on 30 March 2026: Update Broken URL in Reference 91

Latest comment: 2 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please update the URL for Reference 91 ("Spike Lee's Secret Weapon: The Double Dolly Shot"). The current link is dead (404).

Change current URL: http://www.ceros.com/inspire/originals/spike-lee-denzel-washington-movies-cinematography/
To new URL: https://www.ceros.com/blog/double-dolly-shot/

This change repairs a broken link to the original editorial content. Mattingmary (talk) 14:44, 30 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

Done Though an archive link is preferred to prevent link rot, none of the links I tried to access through the Wayback Machine worked, so I've updated this now. Umby 🌕🐶 (talk) 22:20, 30 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
