The latest Sight & Sound is out, and I just about scrape the achievement of having a piece in an entire year’s worth of issues for the first time – though the only piece bearing my name this time round is a short review of Second Run’s DVD of Avenge But One of My Two Eyes (d. Avi Mograbi, Israel/France, 2005).

But next month should more than compensate, as I’m currently knee-deep in Sergo Paradjanov DVDs from France, Japan, Russia and the US, which I’m comparing for an upcoming feature.
