" On its in inception, Canby reviewed it. He said that the story lines were undeveloped and gags having no payoff. He described it to be unreal. Kael at the opposing end commented that she never got to understood Canby's comedy sense. Kael suggested that the comedy was perfectly normal and had charms. She rated it to be far more entertaining than most of the films. The film's director remarked later on that the film only required a degree of word expression that only a review like that of Kael could generate. His famous contributions and famous woks included fiction writing, like Living Quarters of 1975 and Unnatural Scenery of 1979. Canby wrote, produced and directed plays like "End of the War" in New York City 1984 at Ensemble Studio Theatre. Canby is remembered for his famous reviews at New York Times. After reviewing the movie "Monsters in the Morrow," he described it to be the most horrible soft-core sex and violence movie of the decade. He considered it to bed the funniest because of the character depicted by the actress Iisa. Canby described her mind to be warped and the large and unwieldy breast (Buttsworth & Abbenhuis, pg 116). He also described the castration scenes that only entertained the male dominated audience. Thousands of his articles and essays broadly covered the swath of his cinematic arts. Canby's work captivated and inspired more upcoming critics in the entertainment industry. He delivered trenchant insights, sober judgments and humor in theatre and film reviews.

I have drawn a character of aspiration in writing fictional essays principled by the outlined comments and views on creativeness of Canby. Since Canby shared his civilized voice his standard level of work, this has positively enabled the upcoming generation of critics, play wrights, film producer nature, and improvise their interests. Following a tremendous improvement and modernization of technology, film shooting and production has experienced considerable boost striking a substantial challenge to critics. The modernization of technology has helped in widening creativity as critics encounter more challenges when reviewing current films.
Following what happened in the reception of the movie, "Federico Fellini: His Life and Work" in Italy 1972, critic Pauline Kael leaves the theatre rapidly following Canby's critics. Canby claimed that the film was not attached with the history of Casanova. The film lacked narration and structure. The lesson learnt from Kael's reaction is of great importance to the upcoming critics that whatever idea a fellow critic has, one should be able to accept independent opinions and judge from them (Haberski, pg 330). The field of critics is therefore flooded with diverse opinions. This encourages healthy viewing and analysis of theatrical work.
