In Reply to: I'd probably enjoy French critics but I wouldn't let them tell me what I'd like. nt posted by tinear on July 9, 2008 at 18:12:33:
...you should let French critics "tell you what to like." What he's saying is that he thinks you should read French critics and CONSIDER what they say and see if it has any affect on your perception and view of the film. I think it's your assumption that he wants to - rather than Patrick's intention - to strong arm you.All he's asking is that you allow for the possibility of communication, which he sees as an alternative to living in a world where people just throw rigid opinions in each others' faces.
