Very happy to help launch the latest French Screen Studies issue at @WFTHN
#DWFTH6 on Céline Sciamma! For anyone without institutional access, you can download a free copy of my essay here tandfonline.com/eprint/W6THF…
I'm really sorry to hear this. I have lots of thoughts but too many (and possibly garbled) for a tweet or thread right now. It's hard when its impacting different institutions and people in different ways.

RIP Fassbinder Superstar Margit Carstensen, dead at 83. She was a German theatre and film actress best known outside Germany for roles in the works of film director Rainer Werner Fassbinder, most famously in the lesbian melodrama "The Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant" (1972)
