I am wondering about the following titles and how they are listed in the database.

Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story (678149-197624)



Open Water ... listed like that ... why not Open Water: Based on True Events? (031398-167341)



Patch Adams ... listed like that ... why not Patch Adams: Based on a True Story? (025192-054624)



Radio ... listed like that ... why not Radio: Inspired by a True Story? (043396-013070)



Shadowlands ... listed like that ... why not Shadowlands: Based on a True Story? (026359-096822)



We Are Marshall ... listed like that ... why not We Are Marshall: A True Story? (012569-835122)



Would like to get a clarification when the "sub-title" should be used.

IMO, they are neither part of the title nor a subtitle. They are merely a statement. Kinda like "based on the novel by...". Or "From the award winning Director of...".

What about this one - is it "An Inconvenient Truth: A Global Warning" or just "An Inconvenient Truth"?

Edit: sorry - the image is a bit small but the "A Global Warning" is the smaller print under the first title line

I am only asking because when the first movie in this thread was originally being contributed I remember ones that did NOT include that line were getting NO votes. I personally feel that it does not need to be in there, but wanted to see what others feel before I recontribute it WITHOUT that line.

Thanks

I just noticed something that I should have looked at BEFORE making this thread.

On the back of the DVD it does indeed say "Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story" and it is in quotes that makes it the correct title.

So I guess it will stand as it is ...

That's a negative Mark. The "credit block" is used only to determine Possessives not the title of the film. The title comes from the DVD Cover  .

So I would be safe changing the title to just DREAMER?
