Lists. They feel simultaneously essential and meaningless to cinephilia. Whether they are rankings of the best movies of 2025 so far or a list of 15 comics to read before you watch the new Superman, movie fans have a habit of bunching stuff together in order to display our opinions on particular films, or to […] More

Paul Thomas Anderson’s One Battle After Another is an example of a master filmmaker in complete control of his technique and the story he wants to tell.

The summer movie season is officially over, and it’s now time for the best cinematic season of the year: the fall movie season. While some might like the summer more because of the endless blockbusters, the fall movie season is my favorite because it combines every season together.
