movie chronicles

This will be the last episode for at least four weeks and perhaps longer. Among other reasons, I have run out of my redundancy money and not enough is coming in from Patreon and book sales. I apologise for this interruption and hope to see you shortly. In the meantime, I hope this discussion of "Just Imagine" (1930) by the Film Fanatics will hold you over.
