Yes. To all of them. :)

It depends. But I'm sure that "around 1985" is what they're looking
for, whether they mean theatrical release or production end or
contract sign-off or whatever else. If they can get somehow to the
item in question and that item has a slew of rich meta data, I doubt
any of these concerns are real. But that's just a guess. Anyone got a
whole FRBR model going? I know our http://ll01.nla.gov.au/ has an
experimental but limited FRBR model attached, but has anyone attempted
the whole shebang, and lived to tell the tale?
