Lucy Laird's 2018 Eyes

The San Francisco Bay Area is still home to a rich cinephilic culture nurtured in large part by a diverse array of cinemas, programmers and moviegoers. I'm honored to present a selection of favorite screenings experienced by local cinephiles in 2018. An index of participants can be found here. 

Four-time IOHTE contributor Lucy Laird is a Berkeley-based writer and editor who moonlights in box offices and projection booths. She also co-produces the monthly lecture series Nerd Nite San Francisco.
