KICKING YOUTH

So now Calendar is publishing reviews of films based on press-kits and trailers alone. As Robert Hilburn could have told you, in order to judge the worth of a film, trailers only get a weight of 10%, press-kits 8.5%, title 10.5%, budget overruns 22%, advertising campaign 30%, rating 9%, director’s haircut 5%, and 2.5% each for acting and script.

Now that I can’t find the Book Review section anymore, can you tell me if they’re running reviews of jacket blurbs yet?
