RIP Judith Crist (mother of Steve Crist)
Only we old farts will remember her, but she was a very accomplished lady in her own right (more so than her son, actually).

Condolences to Steve and the Crist family. Certainly a critic not shy about giving her honest opinion. Very admirable quality indeed. I love the part where she had said a critic must be an egomaniac, but a larger job requirement is passion, perhaps even love for what movies are, do and can be. That is the same feelings those of us film lovers share, at least I know I do.
RIP Ms. Crist

I remember watching her as a kid on the Today Show, before that clown Gene Shalit took over. She was way classier. But TV had those kind of people on then--William F. Buckley, Dick Cavett, David Susskind, etc. The entertainment programming was largely dreck in those days, but they were not afraid to appear "elitist" on programs meant to engage your mind.
You can scour MSNBC, Fox News and CNN and not find anybody worthy to be compared to the likes of them.
