Obituary: Film critic Richard Schickel fell in love with movies growing up in Wauwatosa

Noted: Schickel went to the University of Wisconsin-Madison on a journalism scholarship, and was editor of the Daily Cardinal and did some freelance work for The Milwaukee Journal. (In “Good Morning, Mr. Zip Zip Zip,” he says he lost his job as editor of the Cardinal because of his “anti-McCarthyism.”). Schickel left Wisconsin in 1956 for Los Angeles, where he worked as a freelance writer and reviewer.
