Table of ContentsReviews"Praise for Jonathan Rosenbaum ""I think there is a very good film critic in the United States today, a successor of James Agee, and that is Jonathan Rosenbaum. He's one of the best; we don't have writers like him in France today. He's like André Bazin."" - Jean-Luc Godard ""Rosenbaum is arguably America's greatest living film critic.""- Alan Williams, author of Republic of Images: A History of French Filmmaking ""Given the power and voraciousness of his mind, Jonathan Rosenbaum could dominate and devour everything in his path if he wanted to, like the bullying movies he abhors. But with his openness of spirit, he prefers films that let you question and participate."" - Stuart Klawans, film critic, The Nation" "Praise for Jonathan Rosenbaum ""I think there is a very good film critic in the United States today, a successor of James Agee, and that is Jonathan Rosenbaum.
