The "much-acclaimed" (by himself)...

... Richard Cohen, writing in The Washington Post, in an obligatory slap-down of Roman Polanski, sez: "Polanski is a great film director -- although the much-acclaimed 'Chinatown' has a muddled script...."


Via Tbogg.


Ah, well, when your gold standard is "The Green Berets," you're going to be kinda picky.... :)


Still, it would be fun to see Cohen explain the bruises after Robert Towne whacked him a few times with his "Chinatown" Oscar... and his BAFTA Film Award, and his Golden Globe... and his WGA award....
