Fair use in film noir
The image linked here is claimed by Wikipedia editor DCGeist to be used under fair use as:
- it is a single screenshot from a historically significant feature-length film;
- it is of much lower resolution than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality);
- its use does not impair the copyright holder's ability to sell or promote the film in any way;
- it is being used only for informational purposes; and
- its inclusion adds significantly to the article because it supports a discussion in the accompanying text of one of the most notable European films of the genre and one of the earliest examples of neo-noir, and specifically of the manner in which it pays homage to noir icon Humphrey Bogart through his imitation by the character played by Belmondo, as depicted in the image.
