Creative Loafing’s Book Section, Shelf Life, just posted this review of “The Film That Changed My Life.”
Excerpt: “Thirty directors discuss a single film that made a lasting impact on their career and work with an insightful critic and columnist...Elder has a knack for keeping his conversations casual and disarmed while sticking to a relatively tight set of questions for each director.
