I Lost It At The Movies by Pauline Kael
Requirements: ePub Reader, 354kB
Overview: This is Kael’s first collection of reviews dating from 1954 to 1965 and prior to her long stint at The New Yorker. The pieces are from broadcasts at KPFA and periodicals including Film Quarterly and Partisan Review. Here also are her largely negative responses to Kracauer’s ‘Theory of Film’ and Sarris’s ‘Notes on the Auteur Theory’. When asked in later years what she had “lost”, she averred “There are so many kinds of innocence to be lost at the movies.” This is the first of her books the titles of which would have an erotic connotation, typifying the sensual relationship Kael perceived herself as having with film, as opposed to the theoretical bent of some of her contemporaries.
