RIP Arthur Lazere

Arthur was the founder and editor of culturevulture.net, and the first guy to publish my movie reviews. If not for him, I might never have gotten my gig with the Star-Telegram, or had a book published, or purchased my three mansions and seven yachts. I knew he was in failing health but not the full extent of it, and though I meant to send him an email of thanks, I never got around to it. So instead, as a sort of tribute to the culture vulture himself, here are a few of my favorite CV pieces:

American Movie

Any Given Sunday

Battlefield Earth

Dancer in the Dark

Jaws

Mulholland Drive

The Sopranos
