Nationality

Is she not a German-American actress? Since she has both U.S. and German citizenship. Lachiquilladelosandes (talk) 00:05, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Never mind, I realised someone already commented on this. Lachiquilladelosandes (talk) 00:05, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

After producing Kate & Leopold?

The article currently says: “After producing the romantic comedy Kate & Leopold (2001), Bullock starred in the psychological thriller Murder by Numbers (2002) as a seasoned homicide detective.” – but Sandra Bullock didn’t produce Kate & Leopold? Her IMDb page has no producing credits between Miss Congeniality and Murder by Numbers, so what is this line supposed to be? Kokoshneta (talk) 17:16, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

@Kokoshneta, I can't find any sources that connect Bullock to Kate & Leopold. The mention was added to the article several years ago. I've removed it. Schazjmd (talk) 17:29, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

"Bullock was born in the Washington, D.C. suburb of Arlington County, Virginia" is incorrect, Arlington County isn't a suburb of Washington, D.C. and is solely Virginia. It should say "Bullock was born in Arlington County, Virginia across from Washington, D.C." since they want to mention D.C. or it can be "Bullock was born in Arlington County, Virginia. 173.53.10.120 (talk) 22:12, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

 Done I don't know why D.C. was mentioned. I also added an archive-url for that ref, it was dead. Schazjmd (talk) 22:21, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
In my opinion there's no reason to qualify Arlington's geographic relation to D.C. at all in that text, but it sure is a suburb of it. Where did you get the idea that a suburb has to be in the same state? At least four Virginia counties, several Virginia cities, and four Maryland counties can be considered suburbs of Washington, just as northeastern New Jersey and southwestern Connecticut are suburbs of New York City.

BFA not MFA

She graduated with a BFA not an MFA so the infobox should be corrected... 74.12.2.239 (talk) 23:23, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

It seems you're correct, as the article's body says it was a BFA, and at least one source besides the cited one with a paywall agrees: . I've changed it. Largoplazo (talk) 00:13, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
