DYLA Year-In-Review

Due to all of you readers and listeners, we had a blast writing and talking about movies again this year. In addition to the guests we had on the podcast (shoutout Taylor Blake, Kenny Ashton, Katie Carter, Ryan Jenkins, and Michael O’Brien!), we were fortunate to have guest posts on the newsletter from

Mike Sherman

on Anatomy of a Fall and

Amanda Kusek

on Swingers. Thank to you both!
