Welcome to the Kinetograph

On this site, I'll be sharing random reflections on the art form I love the most: the cinema. My posts will be wide-ranging and, I hope, mostly intelligent. They may concern an old favorite, a current film or DVD I've just seen, or just some thoughts  about movies in general. I've named this blog after one of the Edison lab's early movie cameras: kinetograph means, loosely, "motion recorder" or "motion writer." Since I'll be writing about motion pictures, it seemed appropriate.
