Article about a film, not properly sourced as passing WP:NFILM. The only notability claim immediately apparent here is that there were actors in the cast who went on to become more notable for later work than they were at the time, which isn't a notability criterion per se -- and the only "source" cited is a directory entry in an IMDb-like database that isn't an automatic notability clincher. But even on a Google search for older sourcing, all I found was more directories, with no discernible evidence of WP:GNG-building coverage about it turning up on regular, news or books searches.
As always, we do not want to just indiscriminately keep an article about every single film that's ever been made -- a film's notability has to be established by showing that it's been a subject of coverage and analysis by film journalists and reviewers, not just by using directory entries to verify that it exists.
