| Occupation | writer/broacaster and film critic |
| Location | Toronto, ON, Canada |
| Introduction | Independent critiques of television, movies, books, music, theatre, culture, and the arts. Daily. |
| Interests | Film, music, books and sports -- and not always in that order. |
| Favorite Movies | Too many to list and the list will continue to expand. Let's just say that Renoir's "Rules of the Game" is the most perfect film; "Bonnie and Clyde" woke me up to film art; "Showgirls" showed me how much fun movie trash could be; "The Godfather 1 and II" made me want to be a critic. |
| Favorite Music | The Beatles opened my mind and Frank Zappa broadened my horizons. My taste on any given day can range from Webern to Guitar Slim. |
| Favorite Books | You'll learn all you need to know about human pathology in "The Brother's Karamazov." Robert Warshow's "The Immediate Experience, " Pauline Kael's "Deeper into Movies" and Greil Marcus' "Mystery Train" will show you how to be a critic. |
