[edit] Summary

Screenshot of Levon Helm from The Last Waltz.

Source: Own screen capture from DVD, copyright 2002 MGM/United Arists.

[edit] Rationales of fair use

It is believed the use of this image in the article, The Last Waltz, is fair use because:

1. The image is a screenshot from the DVD release of the film The Last Waltz originally created by MGM/United Artists, and intended for wide distribution.
2. The screenshot is of much lower resolution than the original film (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
3. There are no free or public domain images of this film. The image is not replaceable.
4. The screenshot does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the film in any way.
5. The screenshot is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original film in any way.

In addition to the reasons above, it is believed the image is fair use on the article about Levon Helm, because:

1. A free-use image exists on the page that shows what the subject looks like.
2. This image accompanies a part of the article that discusses the subject's career at the time the DVD was made.

[edit] Licensing

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots for identification and critical commentary on the film and its contents on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.
