Movie A Day: Vol. 1

by Alexander Shaw

"Alex Shaw is a searchlight of enthusiasm, shining deep into the heart of movies you know, movies you don't and movies you should. Funny, scathing when needed, and fiercely insightful, he's one of the best film analysts working today. This collection is a perfect snapshot of why film is the medium closest to joy. Immediate, intelligent, accessible and fizzing with love for the field."- Alasdair Stuart (EscapeArtists.Net)Alexander Shaw has been writing, producing and hosting film analysis and discussion podcasts since 2007. In late 2016 he decided to start watching and writing about a movie every day. This is the first hundred days, taking you from the heights of The Force Awakens to the depths of Ultraviolet.Each is given a mini-essay, ranging from highlighting the technical expertise to deconstructing the story and characters through to delivering a royal smackdown of acerbically humorous observations. No cow is sacred, no movie is truly safe, but some genuinely surprising gems are unearthed in the strangest of places.Alex can be found hosting the weekly School of Movies podcast and writing the New Century Multiverse.
