When it’s all said and done, I think history will look kindly at Jomo Fray as one of the best cinematographers of our modern era.
I have long been obsessed with the manipulation of time in contemporary Black cinema. For @nytimes.com, I wrote about how NICKEL BOYS is leading a new wave of nonlinear Black storytelling.
I had to evacuate but I am safe! I’m seriously praying for everyone else who has also been impacted by the LA wildfires ❤️
At the beginning of 2024, I had a goal of watching a film everyday. 368 films later, I completed that goal!

Are all Black. Has this happened before?
I love the Charlie Brown Christmas special. There's an eerie loneliness that hangs over the whole thing. The music, Charlie Brown's depression, the dying little tree, the flatness of the children's voices, the inevitability of death. A Christmas masterpiece.
I’m 31 days away from completing my 2024 goal of watching a film a day 🥹
Having a Black woman play Elphaba brings an emotional core I wasn’t anticipating when I saw WICKED. Wow.
SICK!
Calling someone a fragile opp a whole 24hrs before filing a lawsuit is hilarious
“naked acts” (1996) is the first underseen film i’ve been able to bring back into distribution. from discovering the film in fall 2022 to now has been the thrill of the lifetime.

Me being a Kendrick fan from the beginning, I love being on the right side of history.
This was my first couple days on Bluesky. Had to shake off that aggressiveness that Twitter brought out of me.
This will be me on my friend’s couch watching the NFL Christmas Day halftime performance on Netflix
At the top of the year, I had a goal of watching a film a day. We’re almost done with the year and I’m still on track to complete that goal!

Southpaw-paw, amirite?
Grandpa no!
Why do they be hugging? What does it mean?
Tyson with a knee brace because he’s over 30 and honestly, same.
Ok yeah, it’s really peaceful over here vs the other app.
The swashbuckling ass diseases that are going to return with RFK Jr. as Health Secretary? My god today.
Hopefully, this isn't a clone of another starter pack (lemme know if it is 🥲) but I made a starter pack for the Black media gorls!
I know I'm missing names so holler and I'll add you -- or take you out -- tout de suite 👩🏾💻

Rarely do I share when I’m in a trailer, but I do love that I’m in the trailer for ON BECOMING A GUINEA FOWL (possibly the best film from this year’s Cannes).
