It's way over the recommended limit of 700 words. I'll get to it later if nobody does it first. Clarityfiend ( talk) 00:22, 29 November 2015 (UTC)
-- Regarding the last sentence of the Plot section: "available for anyone to read." I am minded to slightly change this to end with an ellipsis to read: "available for anyone to read..."
Would this be acceptable to Wikipedians? CatNip48 ( talk) 18:36, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

That's about it from me. Good job overall with the article. — Ssven2 Looking at you, kid 15:35, 6 May 2017 (UTC)
Thank you very much. I've had to undo a couple of the changes you made. Firstly, "Jr." is almost never used in British English; occasionally "the younger" as a suffix, but the title of Lord can act just as well in this case. Secondly, "Marrying beneath one's station" is the norm in British English too, rather than "status", which carries little meaning in social class terms. I'll make the necessary alterations in line with your comments shortly. Thank you once again, All the best, The Bounder ( talk) 16:30, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

286blue, stop edit warring for crying out loud. Your knee-jerk reversion also took out other constructive changes, so please do not blindly revert on such limited rationale again. There is also an additional problem that the page you are linking to contains copyright infringing material. Under the WP:LINKVIO policy, we cannot link to sites that infringe copyright. - 2A00:23C7:2B86:9800:11F2:723B:CAC4:ABD9 ( talk) 08:38, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
I wonder whether Louis was named after Giuseppe Mazzini? Grassynoel ( talk) 13:48, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
I assume that he was. Although it's curious that he has the French name, Louis, rather than the Italian equivalent, Luigi. PatGallacher ( talk) 13:56, 21 December 2022 (UTC)
The BFI website says that Alec Guinness played nine assorted members of the D’Ascoyne clan and the article mentions this fact repeatedly. Other sources declare unanimously that there were only eight of them, and in the film itself (and in the “Cast" table in the article) I also find only eight. So are we reproducing a mistake of the BFI website here, or is there a ninth D’Ascoyne played by Guinness? Jossi ( talk) 15:04, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
It has been suggested that an earlier Duke of Chalfont, played by Guinness, appears briefly in a flashback scene. However I think this needs proper sourcing before we can include it. PatGallacher ( talk) 15:06, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
In the archived talk page no one seems to mention that Louis kept a family tree on the back of a painting of Chalfont Castle above the fireplace in his bedroom where he kept track of who has died and whom he has murdered. We just need a sharper blow up of those scenes, one of which appears half way down this page. http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDReviews20/kind_hearts_and_coronets_dvd_review.htm Ethelred is in the lower left corner next to his wife Mary, 2nd daughter of Henry Hollington, 5th baron of Angleford, and Agatha appears to be his sister.
