Going Steady : Film Writings 1968-1969
Editorial Reviews

1968 to 1970 was an exciting time for the international cinema. Godard, Truffaut, and Bergman were all at the peak of their powers; in the U.S., Kubrick, De Palma and others were breaking the rules of conventional movie making. The period was also an age of spectacles like Planet of the Apes, The Lion in Winter, and Yellow Submarine. This book reprints all of Pauline Kael's late '60s columns from the New Yorker magazine. In her distinctive and inimitable style, Kael reviews both the movies of this era and the cultural trends of the era itself.
Book Description
In Going Steady Kael has deliberately kept her film reviews in chronological order so that the reader can follow ‘what was evolving in film during a crucial period of social and aesthetic change' at the end of the sixties. From Godard's Weekend to Kubrick's 2001, via Barbarella, Bullitt and Yellow Submarine.
