What Is Getting Older If It Isn't

If It Took Some Effort To See Old Movies, We Might Try To Find Out Which Were The Good Ones, And If People Saw Only The Good Ones Maybe They Would Still Respect Old Movies. As It Is, People Sit And Watch Movies That Audiences Walked Out On Thirty Years Ago.

The Critical Task Is Necessarily Comparative, And Younger People Do Not Truly Know What Is New

I Believe That We Respond Most And Best To Work In Any Art Form (and To Other Experience As Well) If We Are Pluralistic, Flexible, Relative In Our Judgments, If We Are Electic.

Trash Has Given Us An Appetite For Art.

For A While In The Twenties And Thirties, Art Was Talked About As A Substitute For Religion; Now B Movies Are A Substitute For Religion.
