Susan Sontag’s Favorite Movies
My late pal Susan Sontag was a movie lover; also a filmmaker. An intrepid journalist has put together this list of her favorite films. It’s a classic art-house enumeration, topped by Dziga Vertov‘s “Man with a Movie Camera.” Susan’s second favorite Hollywood film (after “2001: A Space Odyssey”) is “All That Jazz” — perverse! Looking at the list was a trip down the memory lane of my teenage years when I was trying hard to learn the difference between Bergman and Antonioni.
