The Rolling Stone Film Reader: The Best Film Writing from Rolling Stone Magazine

November 9, 1967, marked the debut of Rolling Stone. According to Peter Travers, editor of The Rolling Stone Film Reader: The Best Film Writing from Rolling Stone Magazine, the magazine's editor, Jann S. Wenner, declared at the outset that his ""publications would cover not only music but also `the things and attitudes that the music embraces' ""--and that included film. Through the years, the film reviews and interviews by a talented group of writers have followed Wenner's call ""to cut through the myth and the nonsense."" Travers's lists of 50 maverick and 50 rebel films complete the package.
