I would second Peter's recommendation of Dave Kehr. It is hard to teach
film reviewing because there are many different "schools." My profs
included people who wrote for the Village Voice and the NYT, so I
tended to follow those publications, even if some of my colleagues were
Kael fans. But I grew up on the Chicago Reader (thus Kehr), so I would
now probably recommend Jonathan Rosenbaum (Reader) and J. Hoberman
(Voice), both of whom write well and review a lot of Japanese films.
