Richard Schickel

    10 de febrero de 1933 – 18 de febrero de 2017

    Richard Schickel fue un importante historiador y crítico de cine estadounidense cuyo trabajo profundizó en la historia y evolución del cine estadounidense. A menudo desafió los enfoques críticos establecidos, analizando los cambiantes enfoques sociales y morales que influyeron en la realización cinematográfica. Sus escritos y documentales exploraron no solo el cine, sino también otras formas de cultura popular, como los dibujos animados. La contribución de Schickel reside en su perspicaz perspectiva sobre la crítica cinematográfica y su papel en la sociedad.
