Selected Clips

I joined The New York Times as a staff movie critic in November 2023, and all of my articles live here.

Before that, I was a senior correspondent at Vox (full archive here). Since 2006, I've contributed thousands of reviews, features, and essays to publications including Rolling Stone, Vulture, The Atlantic, Bon Appetit, Eater, The Washington Post, The Dallas Morning News, RogerEbert.com, Christianity Today, The Los Angeles Review of Books, Marginalia, Pacific Standard, Paste, Bright Wall / Dark Room, Books & Culture, Thrillist, Flavorwire, and others.

Here is a (very small) selection of clips. You can find my most recent work at The New York Times.
