Episode 12: film critic Leonard Maltin

Bill Brioux
Who better to talk to about television than author, film critic and historian Leonard Maltin? After all, as the New York native explains, "TV was a living museum of movies when I was growing up." That's where he first encountered Laurel & Hardy, the Marx Brothers and all those classic cartoons. Then along came "The Mickey Mouse Club" and before you could say, "Anything Can Happen Day," young Leonard was editing magazines and writing books. Meet the man behind the movie critic in an up close and personal conversation.
