| | Posted: | | | | The cover title of the Italian version is "Thelma & Louise".
In the Credits block on the back cover, it reads "Thelma & Louise" , but it's "Thelma and Louise" in the Copyright notice , always on the back cover (THELMA AND LOUISE (c) 1991 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc.).
So I understand that according to the Original Title Rule the Original Title would be "Thelma and Louise", am I correct? I remember there was some discussion about that part of the Rules, but not precisely what the issue was. | | | | -- Enry |

But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | Yet the Original Title Rule says: Quote:
Use the title from the copyright notice if available, otherwise from the film's credits. | | | | -- Enry |

| | Posted: | | | | I don't honestly think you can use the "original title" rules simply because they've written "&" instead of "and" - it means the same thing, so it's not exactly a modified title or in a different language. |

Correct, but you'll get problems with the title search. Not that I know off any other movie starting with "Thelma", but this is just a special case. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!

But the "&" is in the Title of the Italian version, so it does not necessarily stand for an English "and", there.  | | | | -- Enry | | | | Last edited: by White Pongo, Jr. |
