Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Smart, funny, and unforgettable, Pauline Kael is the most interesting and influential film critic in America. Her ability to skewer an actor or director and her wit, insight, and thorough knowledge of the film business make her by far the most rewarding regular observer of the movie scene. This new collection covers films that have come out since the previous 1985 edition.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>The intelligent person's guide to the movies, with more than 2,800 reviews</b> <p/>Look up a movie in this guide, and chances are you'll find yourself reading on about the next movie and the next. Pauline Kael's reviews aren't just provocative---they're addictive. <p/>These brief, informative reviews, written for the Goings On About Town section of The New Yorker, provide an immense range of listings---a masterly critical history of American and foreign film. This is probably the only movie guide you'll want to read for the sheer pleasure of it.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"She is, indeed, the Edmund Wilson of film reviewers." --<i>Larry McMurtry</i> <p/>"She's the best film critic we've got." --<i>Details</i> <p/>"A great critic...with a body of criticism that can be compared with Shaw's criticism of music and the theatre." --<i>The Times Literary Supplement (London)</i> <p/>"Kael changed the way we see. Poets aren't the only unacknowledged legislators of the world; great critics write the text as well." --<i>San Francisco Examiner</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Pauline Kael</b> won the National Book Award for her film criticism in 1974. The film critic for <i>The New Yorker</i> from 1968 to 1991, she is the author of more than a dozen books on the movies.</p>
