I'm sorry, but anyone who thinks that Brian De Palma is a great film director, is someone who cannot be taken seriously as a critic, in my opinion. I was considering picking up one of her books on film, but after watching this I will definitely pass on her writing. She thinks 2001 and Blade Runner are bad films, but Brian De Palma's movies are great? The Fury gets a glowing review? Absolutely absurd. Even more hilarious is the fact she disliked Hitchcock, but loved De Palma. Many of De Palma's early and mid-period films, such as Obsession, Dressed to Kill, and Body Double are nothing but poor pastiches of Hitchcock films.
