Arts Kauffmann Still Matters
posted by February 3 at 19:58 PM
onStanley Kauffmann, The New Republic’s 90-year-old film critic (he was born in April 1916), ends his review of Notes on a Scandal in this week’s TNR with a duo of quarrelsome declarations that would make our young Lindy West proud. They need to be republished here on Slog.
Verbatim, Kauffmann’s glowing review ends like this:
(By the way, as with Penélope Cruz in Volver, there is a shot of Blanchett on the toilet. Is this becoming a signet of female stardom?)Philip Glass wrote the score. It doesn’t matter.

Phillip glass hasn't been choosing his movies very well lately, has he?
I mean, did you see The Illusionist?
Philip Glass's ear could appreciate the genius of Kauffmann's homophone: the coalescence of the swan's cygnet and the starlet's signet on ... a mundane crapper. Delicious!
Oh man, I love Kauffman. I love it when he writes about seeing Katherine Hepburn on stage in the thirties.
The great thing about ancient writers is that they have to get to the point right away, before they die.
Despite Mr. Feit's unfortunate title to this post, Stanley Kauffmann is an honest-to-god American Idol and one of the main reasons to maintain a subscription to TNR.

In the developed world, virtually every profession makes use of computers.
However, certain professional and academic disciplines have evolved that
specialize in techniques to construct, program, and use computers.
Terminology for different professional disciplines is still somewhat fluid and
new fields emerge from time to time
