A promotional poster for the film Pieces of April (2003). Image copyright is owned by United Artists.

This image is of a poster, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher or the creator of the work depicted. It is believed that the use of scaled-down, low-resolution images of posters to provide critical commentary on the film, event, etc. in question or of the poster itself, not solely for illustration 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 well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Rationale of fair use for Katie Holmes

The use of this image in the article(s) Pieces of April was reviewed by Hetar on 06:15, 3 July 2006 (UTC) and deemed likely to qualify as fair use, as it is believed to meet all criteria as described in Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria. This image's use on other pages or in different contexts may require additional review.

The image Image:Pieces of April movie.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (Extraordinary Machine 18:46, 20 February 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:

1. The image is a promotional poster originally created by United Artists, and intended for wide distribution.
2. No free or public domain images have been located for the subject of the article or this film.
3. The image is of lower resolution than the original poster (copies made from it will be of inferior quality).
4. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the poster or the film in any way.
5. The image is intended to represent the subject in arguably her most well-received film role as of writing. Its inclusion in the article is important because it represents a significant point in the subject's career that is discussed in the article.
6. The image is used on various websites, so its use on Wikipedia does not make it significantly more accessible or visible than it already is. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original poster or the film in any way.

This image fails WP:FUC. Fair-use images may not be used to depict living people. --Yamla 01:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

It's being used to depict her role in the film, not her. Still, I think we'd be able to provide a safer fair use claim for a screenshot from the film itself, as it's Holmes's role in the film that is discussed in the article, not her presence on the poster.
