Keep, I suspect this is a difficulty of accessing sources easily, not that sources don't exist: a Venezuelan film from 1964 is not exactly a hot-button English language internet topic. At any rate the film is significant enough to have been screened at a Venezuelan film festival last month [1]. And as part of the coverage of the screening El Nacional calls it a "classic of Venezuelan cinema". Rd232talk 02:17, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, sorry for this nomination, I would like to Withdraw this. Derild4921☼ 02:22, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I just started a stub for the director, Clemente de la Cerda, a big name in Venezuelan movies. See the Spanish entry for this movie. Not great, but as his first movie it is almost certainly notable. I may expand it. His movie Soy un delincuente also needs an entry - it was a blockbuster. Coverage of non-English subjects is really poor in en.wikipedia. Aymatth2 (talk) 02:48, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Soy un delincuente wasn't even in List of Venezuelan films - I added it yesterday. On a more positive note, the ability of Wikipedia to present things in English in an easily accessible form which otherwise don't have much English coverage online is a good thing - but it needs people to make it happen. WP:CSB exists, in case you're not aware. Rd232talk 09:03, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -notable debut film by a notable director. We are missing many very notable films and cinema people from Latin America. Actually if it wasn't for me we probably ouldn't even have articles on huge Latin stars like Hugo del Carril etc and even that is a poor article...♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:15, 11 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
