Been starting my own journey to understand film more partially inspired by your work. Really appreciate this post.
I've been reading more critique over the last few years to help build up my language for talking about TV/Movies and what to look for in them. I typically turn to AV Club or NYT. What are other good places to go for critique?
Really well said. Reminded me of a clip I saw of Orson Welles saying not to drown yourself in film. The more you watch, the more preconceptions you have when going into a film. Whether or not there’s merit to that statement, I think it’s the same vein of what you said: keep your relationship with the thing you’re trying to appreciate healthy.
amazing stuff, as someone who’s just recently decided to write and look at films with a critical thinking mindset, this is an amazing read. it’s was truly helpful reading through this.

I keep a movie journal, and that really helps me.
