Description
Anton Dolin is a dear old friend of mine. Coincidentally he's also the biggest Russian film critic and author. He's one of the nine critics to vote on the Screen International's jury award at the Cannes Film festival. Anton's the author of a dozen books on film and directors (Dogma 95, Jarmusch, Roy Anderson and other auteurs), as well as the editor-in-chief of the bi-monthly 'The Art of the Film' magazine. The man is well-read and well-watched. So I grilled him on the trials and tribulations of the critic's job, the best way to enjoy a film festival and why does he have this ONE STRANGE CHOICE OF A FILM in his top-10 list of the greatest films ever shot.
