"Life is but an empty bubble."
-- Irene Bullock (the devastatingly exquisite Carole Lombard) in one of the greatest screwball comedies ever, and one of my favorite films, My Man Godfrey

Me, Me, Me!
- Lisa Draski
- Chicago, Illinois, United States
- I graduated in May 2008 from Columbia College Chicago. I have a BA in Film with a concentration in Critical Studies. Film is my passion. I'm a full-time film buff and, more specifically, a classic film fanatic. I know the term "classic" is used very loosely, but I mean American films produced in the studio system between roughly 1930 and 1960. I love everything about this era. My second passion is writing, especially about film. I love doing research, deconstructing and analyzing films, and writing very academically and critically about them. I ultimately want to be a film historian, but I am also interested in working in archiving or preserving films. I want to write analysis or reviews for a publication, as well as my own books. Writing is a beautiful, artistic process to me, and I always need to be writing about film in some capacity in order to thrive as a scholar, a cinéphile, and a person. Now that I'm done with school for the time being, I need an outlet for writing about film on a regular basis. So what you'll find on here will solely be about film, with maybe the occasional entry on something else. I hope you enjoy reading what I have to say as much as I enjoy writing it.

A favorite of mine as well; Carole Lombard is part of my blog banner, after all ;) Irene is one of my feminine heroes, and I aspire to be as sweet and off-kilter as she is every day. Thanks Lisa!!
