Molly Haskell (born September 29, 1939) is an American feminist film critic and author. She contributed to The Village Voice, first as a theatre critic, then as a movie reviewer; and from there moved on to New York Magazine and Vogue. Her most influential book is From Reverence to Rape: The Treatment of Women in the Movies (1974; revised and reissued in 1987). She co-hosted Turner Classic Movies's The Essentials with Robert Osborne in 2006 for one season. In 2013, Haskell received an Athena Film Festival Award for her leadership, creativity and the extraordinary example she sets for other women in the field.
[on Mary Pickford] She was a little girl with gumption and self-reliance who could get herself out of trouble as easily as into it.

[interview in Publishers Weekly, 4/20/90] Writing reviews in the 1970s was so exhilarating. The women's movement was cresting, and yet women were disappearing from the screen . . . I remember arguing that women actually had it better under the studio system in the old days, when they had economic leverage and a whole apparatus for creating and sustaining stardom. Gee, I had so much to say!
