A master film critic is at her witty, exhilarating, and opinionated best in this careerspanning collection featuring pieces on Bonnie and Clyde, The Godfather, and other modern movie classicsFilm criticism is exciting just because there is no formula to apply, Pauline Kael once observed, just because you must use everything you are and everything you know. Between 1968 and 1991, as regular film reviewer for The New Yorker, Kael used those formidable tools to shape the tastes of a generation. She had a gift for capturing, with force and fluency, the essence of an actors gesture or the full implication of a cinematic image. Kael called movies the most total and encompassing art form we have, and her reviews became a platform for considering both film and the worlds it engages, crafting in the process a prose style of extraordinary wit, precision, and improvisatory grace.Her ability to evoke the essence of a great artistan Orson Welles or a Robert Altmanor to celebrate the way even seeming trash could tap deeply into our emotions was matched by her unwavering eye for the scams and selfdeceptions of a corrupt movie industry. Here are her appraisals of eradefining films such as Breathless, Bonnie and Clyde, The Leopard, The Godfather, Last Tango in Paris, Nashville, along with many others, some awaiting rediscoveryall providing the occasion for masterpieces of observation and insight, alive on every page.
