Distinguished scholars Robert Polito and Patricia Patterson discuss Farber on Film: The Complete Film Writings of Manny Farber, a collection of Farber's film criticism that spans his early weekly reviews for The New Republic and The Nation to his later essays (some written in collaboration with his wife, Patricia Patterson). Farber's unusual and pointed prose was credited by many with reinventing film criticism. Later, he devoted himself to his painting and taught film and art at UC San Diego from 1970 to 1987.

Well, looky here at this, says Film Studies For Free: a remarkably rich and informative, hour-long discussion about the work of legendary American film critic Manny Farber. And there's another, half hour shorter documentary embedded at the foot of this post that tackles the subject of Farber's painting, and places it in the context of his film-critical work, to a certain extent.
FSFF adds to the experience by providing some links to other choice scholarly material about Farber. Readers might also like to revisit FSFF's monumental links post The Value of Style: Film Criticism in Scholarship.
There's another Farber related post coming up at this here blog very soon [now posted], so y'all come back now, and we'll ditch the possibly unconvincing, and certainly irrelevant, American accent...
