Editorial policy

Frame by Frame aims to make claims clear, interpretations legible and corrections easy to raise. Each piece should help readers understand a viewing choice or a feature of film and series storytelling without pretending there is only one right way to watch.

Accuracy and interpretation

Writers should check names, titles, dates and other factual details against reliable material before publication. When an article discusses a scene or storytelling choice, it should make clear what is visible or audible and what is interpretation. We avoid unsupported claims and do not invent production details. If an account is uncertain, the uncertainty should be stated rather than disguised.

Independence and partnerships

Editorial decisions are made separately from commercial arrangements. Partner or sponsored material is labelled clearly where it appears, and its purpose and relationship to the partner are made apparent. A partnership does not buy a favourable editorial conclusion or control over unrelated coverage.

Corrections and illustrations

Readers can use the Contact page to flag an error, naming the article and the detail at issue. We review correction requests and amend published material when warranted, making significant changes clear to readers. Some illustrations may be AI-generated; when an image is generated or materially altered that way, it should be labelled.
