Doesn't this title feature any actresses? Is it a gay film?

I think that's what is known as a case of 'premature
incorporation'.
There's a time IMO for adding US-released but entirely
Euro-made flicks, and that should be when at least the
basic data are available. I can understand that there's a
case for the bald entry, with the tacit intention to 'fill
in the blanks' later on- it's then in the DB, and the mods
can go on to the next item of business, but unless those
of us in a position to add data are actually aware of such
titles' inclusion in the first place we may never become
aware, and so said entries will forever remain in their
rather spartan aboriginal state.
For myself, I do try to keep abreast of the title Updates
but I do occasionally forget. My personal opinion is that
such entries can very much be left on the back-burner-
there are far more pressing matters.
The policy also seems inconsistent, to say the least- for
example, not all volumes of the 'Euro Hardball' series are
yet incuded, although inferring the existence of the missing
volumes is of course axiomatic [or if you prefer, a simple
matter of referring to the iafd entries]. So why have these
not been treated in a similar fashion to BS's rogue example?

Well, as I understand it, it's a fairly happy affair.

Oh.... I see what you mean [img]http://www.egafd.com/forum/smileys/grin.gif[/img]
Yes, I am one of those people still bitterly unhappy at the
hijacking*of a perfectly innocent and useful word for the
exclusive use of a vocal minority. The use of an expression like
'gay divorcee' is now, thanks to this linguistic piracy, fraught
with potentially embarrassing complications [img]http://www.egafd.com/forum/smileys/rant.gif[/img]

[*correctly, highjacking. Another victim of creeping
Americanese, I'm afraid [img]http://www.egafd.com/forum/smileys/swear.gif[/img]]

Do you know, I'd forgotten all about that?

I don't think I've ever noticed a copy for sale over here....
and given the poor education of the average bookshop
assistant nowadays, I wouldn't know whether to look for
a copy under Philosophy, or Sexual Politics [img]http://www.egafd.com/forum/smileys/grin.gif[/img]
