yes it's "pauloon"

Every few years I'll go back and listen to the Kael+MacDonald+Simon symposium from 1963-ish, simply because (among other things) it's just a fun sparring match. It's a fascinating contrast to this mid-'80s audio in that Kael back in the earlier instance was more about raising her favorites up. In this newer clip, she's clearly become embittered and — for all she has to say about Ebert & Siskel — seems to think just tossing cherry bombs like "Lauren Bacall was a terrible actress" somehow moves any kind of needle anymore. The more I reflect, the sadder the newer clip feels.

I read Afterglow at the time. She's kind about Carol Reed.

Do you know if that's available somewhere? I'd love to hear it.

Looks like maybe it is no longer available online. I'll rip and post when I get home later tonight

no doubt having a difficult time finding decent rolls.
Picture Lauren Bacall regarding the selection at her local bakery with disgust.
