The LA Times ran a brief interview with her over a week ago. Not sure what she's doing to do next.
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/the_big_picture/2009/12/peoples-leah-rozen-another-film-critic-bites-the-dust.html "I’m leaving because 13 years of reviewing movies full time (and another five years part time) is enough. Been there, done that. I want to get out while I still love movies." How does your decision fit into the bigger picture of the slow death of film criticism? The bigger picture is that movies, at least the big-budget ones put out in mass release by the major studios, aren’t getting any better. Concomitantly, the room to write about them in most publications is getting ever smaller while the glossy pictures accompanying the reviews are growing ever larger. And that’s frustrating. Writers want to write. At length. And don’t even get me started about trying to get in reviews for smaller movies or foreign ones. -- Steve Rhodes http://flickr.com/photos/ari/ photos http://twitter.com/tigerbeat -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "World News Now Discussion List" group.
