I visit David Thomson — author of the iconic Biographical Dictionary of Film, Have You Seen...?, Sleeping With Strangers: How the Movies Shaped Desire, Disaster Mon Amour, and dozens of other books that make him the greatest film critic/historian/writer who ever lived — at his home in San Francisco for a very personal conversation about the horrifying erotic aftermath of MeToo and how to escape, or transcend, the "death of cinema."
