Huge delight to have written the liners for the
@criterion.bsky.social
release of Alan Rudolph's CHOOSE ME. I'm particularly proud of this one, perhaps because the film hits too close to home. Heterosexuality is masochism and we like it!

Thanks to my readers + editors for making this freelance writer thing work another year. It's a tough gig but I'm lucky enough to do it full-time in relative comfort and write about things I genuinely love. Here are some selected longer form pieces of mine, links on my site

Wrote 3k+ words on Catherine Breillat, her ideas on victimhood, & the accusations lodged against her by Caroline Ducey. CB is my favorite living director so it behooved me to seriously grapple with her vision & practicesāwhat an honor to do it for NYRB
