Cheers to Pauline Kael, the mother of film criticism. The funniest, ballsiest, sharpest writer I have ever encountered. She published reviews for 30+ years and wrote for the New Yorker from 1968-1992. Discovering movies with her as my guide was one of the most profound experiences of my life. Kael did not just pioneer a new form of criticism but a new way of writing about and seeing the world. #www
