This film would be part of the little flurry of cinematic activity when Dobermans were wildly popular for a short time in the 1970s. Varlaam ( talk) 00:40, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
approximately a half hour into the film, Garner playing Abel answers the question "are you married" by saying "I'm a faggot... have you seen the women in this town?" Also, the woman whose murder he is investigating is considered or accused of being a lesbian by her surviving husband. I'm still watching (it's on youtube) so I'm not sure where it's going, but the references are strikingly archaic by today's standards, not unusual attitudes for the time, but not present in every film either. 108.182.13.221 ( talk) 00:26, 25 September 2014 (UTC)
The second para of the "Production notes" section is somewhat confused in its chronology and is entirely sourced to IMDB, which isn't acceptable. I've already corrected the reference to Winter Kill as a "TV series", but the chronology of these films and the Adams of Eagle Lake TV series is utterly confused. The correct order of production was:
The wording of the paragraph suggests that the order was Masters, Game, Girl, Adams, and finally Winter Kill. Even the unreliable cited source does not support this chronology. While Kill and Adams were similar in tone, they were not sequels to Masters as suggested by the paragraph in question; rather the Marsh character and its environment were retooled for Griffith, who wanted something set in a mountain community like his two earlier productions. 73.201.123.22 ( talk) 07:13, 17 December 2015 (UTC)
Until about 11 years ago, the plots to works of fiction were often abbreviated in an unencyclopedic fashion, so that readers' potential enjoyment of these works would not be spoiled. In the same spirit, spoiler alerts were often posted at the tops of articles or sections that did give detailed plot summaries. However, this is for over a decade no longer the case. (Please see WP:Spoiler for more information.) Not filling out the plot section leaves the article incomplete and impinges on article quality. Could someone who knows the movie's plot please see that it gets finished? Thanks in advance.-- IfYouDoIfYouDon't ( talk) 07:17, 23 October 2018 (UTC)
On 28 November 2018, the categories 1970s LGBT-related films, American LGBT-related films, and Lesbian-related films were added to the article. I removed them because there is no content in the article that even mentions an LGBT character in the film. Per WP:CATVER:
Apparently, June Allyson's character is a lesbian. That's all well and good (and I'm the last person to deny acknowledgment of lesbian content in a movie), but if having a lesbian in the plot is an element in the story, and the film is going to be identified with LGBT categories, there needs to be information added to the article about it that's also verified with sources.
