Lane is the only critic I read and trust, and the majority of critics are all about thumbs up and down. I think somebody should criticize critics, just to show how little they know about movies.
Thanks Anthony for defining the role of the movie critic: 3.15: "the job is give the reader the sensory experience of what it was like that...like a holiday report." Brilliant. And thanks for uploading this video.
Though David Thomson is very knowledgeable and I agree with him on many issues,some of his opinions are really ridiculous,Still,his dictionary of cinema is an important book for all film lovers.
A good guy.

Agree. Anthony is very funnny as well as being so erudite. I want to go back and reread 'Nobody's Perfect.'
