5001 Nights at the Movies |
|||
Pauline Kael, winner of the American National Book Award for her film criticism in 1974, contributed over the years an enormous number of short pieces for the New Yorker's famous 'Goings on About Town', giving a run-down on what movies were playing in any given week. These screen listings have now been compiled, updated and expanded by Kael into a huge alphabetical guide to thousands of films of every conceivable style, genre and appeal. 'She is a good critic, wonderful in the way she combines intimate practical knowledge with unbuyable human reflection.' John Updike 'Pauline Kael is the critic you can read every inch of the way with pure pleasure.' The Guardian Pauline Kael is the author of many volumes of film writings, including I Lost It At The Movies, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Going Steady, Deeper Into Movies, Reeling, When The Lights Go Down, Taking It All In, State of the Art, Hooked, Movie Love and Raising Kane.
