She is like a muckraker fighting for the rights of movie lovers, a one-time member of "the gang" who pounces on the hint of an excuse to blast the Big Wheels and demagogues and hooligans of movie-making. The voice belongs to someone who is simply fed up with slickness and sellouts, someone who wants to make sure that we know enough to ask for more from movies before it is too late...
