about
Lauren, 26, librarian, and like you, obsessed with film. This is a half-finished and labyrinthine personal database of a film journey and the fetishes I've acquired thereby, but I hope you will have some fun with it, too. My tendency is to immerse myself in long and obsessive projects to the exclusion of all else, but you'll typically find a lot of classic Hollywood, 60s/70s world cinema, and contemporary awards bait on these pages.
