And I also give him credit for putting his money where his mouth is (no pun intended) by actually writing a screenplay in the late 60s, even though it turned into one of the worst movies of all time. And yes, I knew he hadn't been well for years and had lost the ability to speak and eat solid foods, but that picture floored me when I saw it the other day.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I used to be that way, but I've found myself disagreeing with him more and more. Plus I can't forgive him for bad reviews of both "Raising Arizona" and "The Usual Suspects".
Anyway, I've never found a reviewer I agree with more (I can almost always guess EXACTLY how many stars he gives a movie after I've seen it) than James Berardinelli. I love his stuff.

I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
