Today seems to be the day for more expansive appreciations of Cyd Charisse (My word, are feature writers ever precious princesses who take their time.). Here's are links of the most interesting:
David Thomson, a great, great critic, but prone to tossing out interesting, radical, provocative notions such as that Nicholas Ray's Party Girl was Charisse at her best.
Manohla Dargis, strangely describing The Girl Hunt as not sexy. No guy would say that. :)
Klinkenborg, New York Times, a splendid example of analyzing film at a level where it doesn't matter anymore.
Ty Burr, dead wood version
Ty Burr, blog version, with clips
Washington Post
D.C. Examiner
L.A. Times
Hartford Courant
Obviously, we've been Cyd-heavy, but when else will we ever again have the chance to be so?
