"I don't want to SEE that!"*

*This blog is inspired by Lisa Kudrow's/Valerie Cherish's epochal cry -- "I don't want to SEE that!" -- to defend her humanity against media cruelty and exploitation, on the HBO series The Comeback.

About Me

John Demetry
Visit my criticism archives: Revolution to Revelation! I earned my BA in Communications Arts: Radio, Television, and Film from the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 2000. Since then, I have worked as a freelance film (and music) critic for such publications as Cinedrama, First of The Month, and GayToday. Mostly, I struggle to find a home for my voice -- and a voice for my home. Mapping this quest, these works of criticism attest to the insights and passion I offer. They illustrate my: 1) Unique perspective - semiotics-charged, formalism-based, pleasure-bound; 2)Fundamental values - pop culture as a unifying force; 3) Erudition - as a film major in college (emphasis: history/theory/criticism) and as a life-long student of ideas and art.
