 I was raised by a movie talker. When I was a child, my dad and I went to our local theater every Wednesday to see whatever was out. If that week’s offering was pure schlock, my dad and I would yuk it up. His humor, complemented by an insider’s perspective afforded to him by a career as a writer and director, was incisive and perfect to me. Like a sidelined quarterback barking at the television on Super Bowl Sunday, he called out narrative inconsistencies or forced plot turns with ease, or pointed out actors’ tics that escaped less practiced eyes.

google:我是由電影評論家撫養長大的。當我還是個孩子的時候，我和父親每週三都會去當地的劇院看上映的任何劇目。如果那一週提供的內容都是劣質品，我和爸爸就會大笑起來。他的幽默，加上他作為作家和導演的職業所賦予他的內在視角，對我來說是敏銳而完美的。就像超級盃星期天在電視機前咆哮的場外四分衛一樣，他輕鬆地指出敘事的不一致或強行​​扭轉情節，或指出演員的抽搐，而這些抽搐是普通人無法察覺的。
