"Lanark is widely and justifiably regarded as Gray’s masterpiece. But I love this novel and its protagonist; masturbating, alcoholic, conservative Jock. It shows the dismal outcome of a life that succumbs to fear, but is still somehow an uplifting book."

"It’s just quality at its best. Fantastic writing, an amazing caliber of acting; just beautiful, everything about it. The details of the clothes, the sets — just a masterpiece. Again, I can watch any of the trilogy time and time again. "

"A kinetic masterpiece by Bob Fosse. One of the best-edited films of all time. Roy Scheider deserves more recognition for his work. First saw this in a double feature with Lenny, which every art-house theater programmer should schedule."

"The shot with Dorothy Malone walking down the stairs makes all rock videos ever after resemble forgotten, anemic nuns. With his small masterpiece, Fassbinder shows us the basic tenderness of his heart, this time not hidden behind his cinematic skills."

"If you’re only going to direct one film, make it a masterpiece. (It was also rejected in its own time.) Charles Laughton’s horror movie is so scary that it’s funny. And beautiful and mysterious and utterly unlike any movie ever mad"
