Review Roulette

About the Substack

Film reviews with a twist! Each week, the Review Roulette wheel lands on an approach that I then use to watch and review a film from the 20th century.

About Vaughn Joy

I hold a PhD in post-war, early Cold War Hollywood via a case study on Christmas films. I write on the past and present dangers of Hollywood monopolization and how film can help us understand our world.
