Description: I know this is usually where the editor writes an extensive introduction that contextualizes the project, and argues for why this particular book, at this particular moment, feels especially vital. But the truth is this collection is based on an idea too simple-and too enduring-to necessitate anything more than the following: movies are awesome. That's been true for over a century, and my guess is it will still be true a century from now.
Without further ado, then, enjoy this book, and enjoy these writers. -Kareem Tayyar, Southern California, September, 2023
