Description: | Select Guide Rating Manny Farber was a unique figure among American movie critics. Champion of what he called ''termite art'', master of a one-of-a-kind prose style whose jazz-like phrasing and incandescent twists and turns made every review an adventure, he has long been revered by his peers. Susan Sontag called him ''the liveliest, smartest, most original film critic this country ever produced.'' Farber on Film brings together his extraordinary body of work in its entirety for the first time. |
