From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Derek Malcolm (born 1932) is a British film critic and historian, educated at Eton College. He worked for several decades as a film critic for the The Guardian, having previously been an amateur jockey and the paper's first horse racing correspondent. In the mid-eighties he was host of The Film Club on BBC2, which was dedicated to art house films.
Upon his retirement in 2000, he published his final series of articles, The Century of Films, in which he shared his favourite films from around the world. Currently he is president of the British Federation of Film Societies and the International Film Critics' Circle, and a contributor to The Evening Standard. In 2003 he published an autobiographical book Family Secrets which recounts how in 1917 his father shot dead, but was found not guilty of murdering, his mother's lover.
