Synopsis
Originally produced for PBS, the American Cinema series examines what is probably the leading American art form: film. Chock-full of clips from important films and interviews with the men and women who made them, each episode is an in-depth look at an important facet of the history of American film. This particular episode offers an in-depth exploration of the nuts and bolts of film criticism, including how to take apart a film and judge its relative merits.
