Film critic Roger Ebert calls Dan Schneider 'a considerable critic....'' that Dan Schneider (in regards to Ebert's writings) 'may well be correct in some aspects. What his analysis gives me is a renewed respect and curiosity about his own work....'; he states, 'Dan Schneider is observant, smart, and makes every effort to be fair.' He states, 'I conclude he is more analytical and less visceral that I am,' Ebert ends his praise, stating, 'What is remarkable about these many words is that Schneider keeps an open mind, approaches each film afresh, and doesn't always repeat the same judgments. An ideal critic tries to start over again with every review.' -12/9/09, from 'Who do you read? Good Roger or Bad Roger?', by Roger Ebert

A meager memoir from a figure straddling two dubious genres.
A lightweight exploration of why people cannot change, from Woody Allen.
One of Woody Allen's critically abused films is, surprise, actually a terrific film.
An atrocity of cinema from Germany's Rainer Werner Fassbinder.
A classic novel that does not live up to the hype, even as it exceeds its author's earlier works.
