What was once 4therace, an anxious 15-year old’s blog where he could spew his thoughts and share his growing love for cinema, has now evolved into Filmagra.
Like 4therace, I have no clue what direction I want to take this new iteration of my site. The three things I know Filmagra will prove to do is 1) showcase my never-ending love for movies, 2) share this love with the world and 3) serve as another stepping stone in my journey towards being a film critic and, one day, a filmmaker.
For the time being, here’s some film related facts about me if you’d like to gauge if Filmagra’s content, and hence my opinions, might interest you.
