Quote of the Day (Pauline Kael, on a Film—I Think It’s Fair to Say—She Disliked)

“The most expensive Rin Tin Tin picture ever made, with a gimmick the Rin Tin Tin pictures never stooped to: the dolphins here are dubbed with plaintive, childish voices and speak in English.”—New Yorker film critic Pauline Kael, on Mike Nichols’ The Day of the Dolphin, which premiered on this date in 1973
