Leonard Maltin’s Movie Guide, already well-established when Blockbuster Video stores began to appear, was an essential companion in the pre-Internet era of home video.

For twenty years, Maltin was a regular contributor on Entertainment Tonight. He recently returned to ET for this retrospective of his career.
I follow Leonard on Facebook and Patreon.
Siskel died at the hospital where you and I were born.
I would buy his brick-thick movie review books up until I had Molly. Great fun. Probably my favorite reviewer. I also enjoyed Siskel and Ebert but found Siskel to be a bit of a pr**** at times.
