A message from J.M. Tyree:

If you enjoy what you read in Film Quarterly, drop me a line at jmtyree@vcu.edu. I love hearing from filmmakers, artists, and scholars, especially students, about films and series worth considering for coverage, and I rely on my colleagues and students for movie recommendations!
