Welcome to my site! My name is Andrea Thompson, and I’m a writer, editor, and film critic who is a member of the Chicago Indie Critics and also the founder and director of the Film Girl Film Festival, which you can find more info about at filmgirlfilm.com! I have no intention of becoming any less obsessed with cinema, comics, or nerdom in general.
A review of the film The Boy and the Heron? More like, you had me at Miyazaki. And myself and my critic brethren aren’t the only ones—at the Chicago International Film Festival screening, there were raucous cheers at the sight of the Studio Ghibli logo.
