" I rececently watched for the second time Howard Hawks' Man's Favorite Sport?, a film that was universally ridiculed when it appeared in 1964 and I myself hadn't much liked. This time I was delighted and deeply moved by the grace and humor with which the story is told, and moved by the reverberations of a whole substratum of meaning, of sexual antagonism, desire and despair." -Molly Haskell, 1971
