Book excerpt: Six motion picture critics are the subjects of this study: Vincent Canby, Judith Crist, Pauline Kael, Stanley Kauffmann, Andrew Sarris, and John Simon. Following in the footsteps of James Agee, this sextet comprises part of a second generation of serious, competent film critics. The study presents a descriptive review of each writer's work, featuring analysis of both style and content. These observations are made: Vincent Canby is a highly consumer-reports-oriented critic whose daily columns offer plot summaries and general critical impressions, but provide little detailed analysis. Judith Crist, as a reporter-critic for the masses, infuses her reviews with behind-the-scenes notes, interrupted, fact-packed, sentences, and a chatty, conversational tone. Pauline Kael is primarily a socio-psychological critic who intelligently explains the appeals that certain movies have. Stanley Kauffmann, a "highbrow," is a scholarly writer who uses his practical background in acting, directing, and playwriting to give authority to his film critiques. A writer for the film buff and the connoisseur and a disciple of the French auteur theory, Andrew Sarris evaluates movies primarily from the director's point of view. John Simon, for whom motion picture criticism is an art, easily surpasses his colleagues in erudition, vitriol, and arcane reference, while dispensing periodic denouncements of popular taste. The six critics seem to be thoughtful, probing, dedicated journalists who revere movies. Collectively, their significance derives from their reportorial insights, their skills as essayists, and their aims to promote and upgrade the medium. For all the professional dissimilarities and private and public variances involved, the critics have demonstrated their zeal. Again collectively, this "second generation" of writers has made solid advancements in the art of motion picture criticism.

Book Synopsis The Complete History of American Film Criticism by : Jerry Roberts
Download or read book The Complete History of American Film Criticism written by Jerry Roberts and published by Santa Monica Press. This book was released on 2010-02-19 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Complete History of American Film Criticism is a chronicle of the lives and work of the most influential film critics of the past 100 years. From the first movie review in the New York Times in 1896 through the Silent Era, the pre- and postwar years, the Film Generation of the 1960s, the Golden Age of the 1970s, and into the 21st century, critics have educated generations of discriminating moviegoers on the differences between good films and bad. They call attention to great directors, cinematographers, production designers, screenwriters, and actors, and shed light on their artistic visions and storytelling sensibilities. People interested in what the great film critics had to say have usually been shortchanged as to their backgrounds, and just why they are qualified to sit in judgment. Using mini-biographies, placed within a chronological framework, The Complete History of American Film Criticism is the biography of a profession whose cultural impact has left an indelible mark on the 20th century’s most significant art form.

Book Synopsis Hollywood Highbrow by : Shyon Baumann
Download or read book Hollywood Highbrow written by Shyon Baumann and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-05 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today's moviegoers and critics generally consider some Hollywood products--even some blockbusters--to be legitimate works of art. But during the first half century of motion pictures very few Americans would have thought to call an American movie "art." Up through the 1950s, American movies were regarded as a form of popular, even lower-class, entertainment. By the 1960s and 1970s, however, viewers were regularly judging Hollywood films by artistic criteria previously applied only to high art forms. In Hollywood Highbrow, Shyon Baumann for the first time tells how social and cultural forces radically changed the public's perceptions of American movies just as those forces were radically changing the movies themselves. The development in the United States of an appreciation of film as an art was, Baumann shows, the product of large changes in Hollywood and American society as a whole. With the postwar rise of television, American movie audiences shrank dramatically and Hollywood responded by appealing to richer and more educated viewers. Around the same time, European ideas about the director as artist, an easing of censorship, and the development of art-house cinemas, film festivals, and the academic field of film studies encouraged the idea that some American movies--and not just European ones--deserved to be considered art.
