Fair use rationale for El Cimarrón (film) edit

1. For an article about a film, the original poster is arguably one of the most important images that could be included.
2. No free or public domain images have been located for this film.
3. The image is of lower resolution than the original poster (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
4. The poster is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film in any way.
5. The poster is used on various websites, and its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible than it already is.
6. The poster's use on Wikipedia is entirely encyclopedic in nature.

Fair Use Rationale edit

Though this image is subject to copyright I (Thief12 02:56, 19 October 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the film in any way;
2. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the film on another medium;
3. the image helps to demonstrate the description of the album in its article El Cimarrón.
