    Rex Reed, film critic and celebrity interviewer, dead at 87

    Rex Reed, a film critic and journalist whose sharp-tongued writings
    appeared in the New York Daily News, died Tuesday in his Manhattan home.
    He was 87 years old.

    William Kapfer, Reed's longtime friend, confirmed his death. In a
    statement to the New York Times, the writer's publicist, Sean Katz,
    added that Reed had a brief struggle with an unspecified illness before he died, though he did not provide further details.

    His cause of death was not disclosed.
