, who was let go along with several other reporters an editor. After growing up at Daily Variety with him, I would say that McCarthy is a critic in the mold of Roger Ebert. I invoke Ebert because like him, McCarthy’s reviews exuded an intellect that far surpassed mine, but I never felt he talked down to me, or that was an elitist poseur or took gratuitous clickbait shots. Rather, he informed and entertained and considered what a filmmaker was trying to accomplish in his assessment.
When I refused this opportunity, B.J. proposed that I interview Max about the film. I politely declined. The next day I was informed me that my services would no longer be required at the Reporter, and also learned that Max and B.J. were Bel-Air-circuit social friends. For those of us deeply into newspaper traditions and lore, you couldn’t beat it, nor could you put anything over on the great and feisty editor, Tom Pryor, a former Golden Gloves boxer from New York and proud bulldog Irishman who was tough and always played fair. The only drawback was that film critics didn’t get by-lines on their reviews, only one-name “monickers” that reflected your actual name .
However, scarcely a year later, a super-smart and imaginative young woman named Janice Min turned up to jump-start and in all ways transform The Hollywood Reporter from the skinny doormat of a publication it was into an excitingly re-imagined trade full of in-depth pieces and striking photographs and layouts.
Quite a journey you had. Mr. ToddMcCarthy Wish you the best for what comes next. Hope you and your family are staying healthy from COVID-19.
It's a damn shame to treat such a talented film critic with such flagrant disregard. Todd McCarthy is tougher than his (former) employers, and they know it. His written response is the best thing I've read all year. Cheers Todd, beers are on me at blindtigernyc when it returns.
