Tangential, but it was Kael's influence that got Taxi Driver made into a film that launched many careers, after young Paul Schrader sent her the script. If she had dismissed it, the history of American film would be quite different.

Kael gave Bergman several positive reviews. I doubt she would have ever changed her mind about the Kubrick films she panned, no matter how often she subjected herself to them. The pompous, overdetermined style was anathema to her.
