NEW NEWSLETTER | Screens with Monica Hesse Friends! This month marks my one-year anniversary as The Washington Post’s screens critic. It’s a great job, a bizarre job and a lonely one: I’m drowning in 60 hours a week of content, mostly from my sofa and mostly by myself (I just found a raisin in my hair. Help.) In short, I need more people in my living room. So. As we approach the holiday viewing season–Oscar-bait movies, Hallmark Christmas specials, whatever trash will appease all your visiting relatives — I’m launching a four-week newsletter called Screens with Monica Hesse. In it, I’ll tell you everything I’m looking at. More importantly, I want to know what you’re looking at, and what you wish you were looking at with company. Anything goes: the third season of “The Sopranos”? Something weird and Danish? Each week I’ll pick one reader’s suggestion and we’ll all watch it as therapeutic homework. The first newsletter comes out Friday, October 30th — sign-up here. And, start sending your group-watch recommendations to screens@washpost.com. Can’t wait to join you on the world’s biggest sofa. - Monica Hesse |
