First sentence: FRANCIS DAVIS: When you liked a movie, your enthusiasm was contagious.
Description: "Shortly before her death, Kael sat down with Francis Davis to chat about her life and work - and, of course, the movies. Among the many things she talks about here are her childhood, her early days as a critic, her career at the New Yorker, the directors she knew (for better or worse), her disappointment with recent cinema, and her renewed interest in television."--BOOK JACKET.
