tin,
I fully agree, even if we disagree on her take on Bergman. I have never read another critic who could bring such a wealth of knowledge to bear on her reviews.
Even if one disagreed with her view on a film, she would always make her points so clear that you could understand why she felt the way she did.
I haven't seen anyone else even approach her. Her books should be required reading in film school.
