Expand this

[edit]

I'm going to expand this, especially the plot section. When I've done that, I'll add some actor info. --Quentin Smith 12:45, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

South Africa and South African should be capitalised, as should Black and White; but not government. Please give full names, i.e. Steve Biko, not just Biko. --Quentin Smith 12:55, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia

[edit]

I'm removing the bit about Peter Gabriel's song, "Biko." While it's certainly important to the Stephen Biko and Peter Gabriel pages, it has nothing to do with this film. PacificBoy 19:00, 27 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

how much of the film is based on fact? did the book get published? what happened after that? 82.0.24.133 19:55, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

donald woods two books were published in england and donald and wendy woods themselves were chief advisors on the film so it is all true fact--Charlieh7337 (talk) 05:43, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No 'Historical accuracy' section?

[edit]

Shouldn't there be a section on the movie's historical accuracy? Not because I think it is particularly accurate or inaccurate, but because it seems that the movie is based on a true story, shouldn't there be a section per FILMHIST?-- Mr. Guye (talk) (My aftermath) 15:18, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fix the ridiculous format of the quotes inserts ...

[edit]

Especially the text along the left margin of the second quote box,by Desson Howe, in the "Reception" section. But the first qoute box needs cleaning up, as well. Check the entire article, I skipped down to the Reception section, I hadn't opened up the other sections yet. Quite sophomoric, to say the least. Thanks.
