Here's a post about the book on French Cinema published this year that includes a couple of my essays:...

P.T. Anderson again? Just had some nice exchanges with H. Tree and Johann about him in the 1997 thread. Actually, posts dealt primarily with Boogie Nights and Hard Eight, which I like but not as much...
