Good golly. Finally sat down with Issue #1 of #TheMetrograph (the new print film journal I got as a gift) & find myself strangely/deeply moved by the breadth & range of cinephilia addressed within its literally beautiful pages. @metrographnyc.bsky.social

nobody modeled the love of deep attention the way the incomparable Morgan Jenness did. such enthusiasm, such rigor, such fervor, such dedication, such generosity...
