The Rolling Stone Film Reader: The Best Film Writing from Rolling Stone Magazine - From 1967 to 1996

Presents movie reviews and interviews with actors, actresses, and directors

November 9, 1967, marked the debut of Rolling Stone. According to Peter Travers, editor of The Rolling Stone Film Reader: The Best Film Writing from Rolling Stone Magazine, the magazine's editor, Jann S. Wenner, declared at the outset that his "publications would cover not only music but also 'the things and attitudes that the music embraces' "?and that included film. Through the years, the film reviews and interviews by a talented group of writers have followed Wenner's call "to cut through the myth and the nonsense." Travers's lists of 50 maverick and 50 rebel films complete the package.
