As the year winds to a close, we’ve had a chance to reflect proudly on the work we’ve been publishing in the Metrograph Journal. Below, you’ll find a selection of 15 of the Journal’s most popular pieces of the year for you to visit or revisit-interviews with filmmakers, actor profiles, entries in some of our ongoing columns, and essays on films we love. We want to thank all of our wonderful Journal contributors and readers, and look forward to sharing more great writing with you in 2024.-The Editors
