The Edges of Cinema: Essays on Twenty-First Century Film Culture with Erika Balsom (Columbia UP, 2026)

A selection of this criticism has just been published by Columbia University Press as The Edges of Cinema: Essays on Twenty-First Century Film Culture (2026). The book is a rich feast, exploring an idiosyncratic selection of films and a wide range of issues in contemporary film cultures: from the stakes of observation to the effects of digital technologies, from the slowness of “slow cinema” to the renaissance of repertory cinema, and much more beside.
