I enjoyed reading this review of movie reviews
Okay. I'll accept the premise that she was principally an autobiographer through film reviews. But when she was, as the author notes, not a kind or good person, why consume her autobiography?
there is an archive of her reviews here: https://www.geocities.ws/paulinekaelreviews/
it’s not the best way to browse reviews at random however
I often enjoy reading movie reviews more than watching the movie they review, even when I do enjoy the movie.
I can't usually describe that well why I did or didn't like a movie, so it's fun when I read a review that does put into words how I felt about it. It gives me a deeper perspective on my own feelings about the movie.
Shout out to Vince Mancini, my personal go to film critic.
