Pauline Kael had a tough childhood poverty I think she done quiet well for her self considering. she had to work split shift jobs study look after a child with disabilities & a one parent family she got her break & took it. Kael was signed to be a critic for her enthusiasm attitude she also had good knowledge & character in films she might have been a tough critic & right wing sometimes but that's what she got paid for not to be a soft job & lie she was on point. Pauline Kael was good person keep on stoning her.
