Agee on Film: Criticism and Comment on the Movies (Modern Library the Movies)

"In my opinion Agees column is the most remarkable regular event in American journalism today."--W. H. Auden James Agee was passionately involved with the movies throughout his life. A master of both fiction and nonfiction he wrote about film in clean smart prose as the reviewer for Time magazine and as a columnist for The Nation. Agee was particularly perceptive about the work of his friend John Huston and recognized the artistic merit of certain B films such as The Curse of the Cat People and other movies produced by Val Lewton.
