Milestone "uncredited"?


IMDB just keeps getting worse and worse, as more and more people who know nothing about film become members, and use their memberships to post misinformation here. Prime example: here in the credits for Rain, Lewis Milestone is listed as the "uncredited" director. WTF? Milestone is clearly credited in the opening of the film as its director.

It really is unfortunate. It's amazing how much incorrect information is permitted to be posted. It's as bad as Wikipedia. This is what happens when people don't care about verifying their information and when others allow that ignorance to go unchecked.
