She is a good critic, wonderful in the ways she combines intimate practical knowledge with unbuyable and human personal reflections.
John Updike
Pauline Kael on the movies makes most critics of anything else seem like well intentioned bores… What is rare is the way she gives herself to what she sees and what she writes and her assumption that both film makers and readers are at least as human as she is.
The Nation
The most interesting, invigorating film critic around and one of the most valuable social and cultural commentators that we have.
NewYork Times
The title chosen by Pauline Kael for this classic collection of her film writings reflects a period of prolonged and sensitive commitment to a medium which was going through an era of profound and exciting change. The late sixties saw great cultural and political upheavals many of which were reflected in the films reviewed in this collection. In her foreword, the author describes the circumstances which led to her being able to make a career as a film critic.
