About Me

My photo
M.D. Perkins
I write, direct and watch films. On this blog, I usually write about films in expressionistic, stream-of-consciousness prose rather than strict cinematic analysis. I hope that is not a deterrent. There is a spattering of poetry, imaginary films, personal movie awards and personal narratives as well.
