For instance, Pauline Kael raves about Tango in Paris six months before the movie hits the country. Everybody spends six hot months panting to see the eroticism that shall change the face of cinema. No movie could live up to such a snowball of projected fantasy. So when it finally arrives and the inevitable letdown is assured, scads...
