The Film Maven Gold Star Crew

Meet the Gold Star Crew—the people who help me do the work I love to do.

The Silver and Gold Film Mavens are people who support my projects by providing recurring support. Together, they form a network that supports independent entertainment journalism in a non-AI world. Want to join them? Learn why you should become a paid subscriber:

• Shout outs on my newsletter when you join and whenever you have something you're launching.
• Included on my Gold Star Crew list
• Bi-Monthly Zoom Mixers where we can talk entertainment, get advice on journalism, and generally discuss the world.
• Access to our Discord server where we can chat about movies and entertainment. It's also where I host my yearly Golden Globes and Oscar watches.
• Participation in my new Film Maven Secret Santa Gift Exchange (launching November 2026)
• Access to all my paid content and exclusive series like The Trade, Women They Warned You About, Journalism is Fucked and We're All Doomed and Popcorn Disabilities.

The Film Maven

Not an influencer, just an overworked, underpaid entertainment journalist talking about movies and what you should spend your money on.
