Hmmm...is it a Tagline? I did a search for "Two of Hollywood's most beloved stars, Cary Grant and Doris Day, sparkle in a breezy, stylish comedy that's rich with romantic delights." and pretty much every site that either sells or reviews this DVD use it as a Tagline...including IMdB .

Agree with this. I wouldn't vote no if it was added.


It's already in the profile.  Someone is attempting to remove it.




As they should. And Thank you for the correction.

To me it's an advertising ploy or pitch to you to read and then decide to buy DVD.. It is not part of the overall story line or Overview for Title description ..
In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

It is NOT relevant to the substance of the Overview or if you prefer plot summary.

BTW  a bigger problem you may have is the aspect ratio of this film is really 2.35:1  not 1.85:1  as shown at bottom of box .. Did Artisan bogus the print and crop it?  or is it a misprint...  Do we honor misprints or go by actual OAR.. of DVD  or the 1962 movie? .. I think it is Panavision 2.35  .....

You should go by the AR of the DVD version and take the cover AR unless you can prove that the actual AR is different.

I believe I removed the tagline locally.  I don't bother contributing stuff like this anymore because too many folks get their undies in a twist.  Oh, and this particular disc is actually 2.35:1, non-anamorphic.  Oh, and The Grass is Greener is also 2.35:1, just in case that is messed up as well.

Thanks for all the input.  I left the change in.  We'll wait and and see what TPTB think.  Either way, you can always make your local what you want.

Also, to those who vote "no" only because they think a submission is trivial: let TPTB decide what the Contribution Rules mean.  We aren't the final authority on that.  As long as the submission data is correct, we shouldn't be voting no.

I don't believe that thinking a contribution is trivial is a valid reason to vote no...at least, I couldn't find it in the rules.

I would not have a problem if this would be within the overview in the database. (Maybe it could be counted as a simlar case as this)

If not sure, I'd contribute this a single change and let the voters (owners of this DVD) decide. If I want it still in my Overview I'd lock it after contributiong.

Not a tagline IMO. Should be part of the overview...

FWIW I agree; but sadly I see so many people adding non-plot summary sections off the rear cover using the "copy what's on the cover" portion of the Rule only I almost get fed up with No voting in the face of all the Yes votes as it never seems to make a difference...
