Surprise Attack (1951) titles
  • ... ... that British film Surprise Attack (titles pictured) warned of the danger of not being vaccinated against infectious diseases?

  Interesting article about a short film, on good sources, no copyvio obvious. In the hook, I'd provide at least a year, and perhaps say "official" and/or "short". The prominent actor for the physician might also add, no? I don't get why "titles" are pictured, seeing only one. - In the article, I see too many gallery pics too small to mean anything. Perhaps better fewer and larger? The one-sentence "Reception" looks strange, - perhaps combine with what follows? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:44, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thank you kindly @Gerda Arendt:... I have amended as per your suggestions. Pinging @Philafrenzy: to edit hook and clear images. Whispyhistory (talk) 12:12, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Gerda, I was trying to keep the hook punchy and relevant to current affairs. I don't think it needs to be any longer or distract by mentioning the lead actor. I will look at the gallery but don't feel that there is much wrong there either. Can you approve it as it stands? Philafrenzy (talk) 20:14, 18 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Embedding film? edit

Nice article! Since the film is in the domain, would it make sense to embed it somewhere on the page, rather than having it just be an external link at the bottom where it's less likely to be noticed? {{u|Sdkb}}talk 00:37, 7 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
