Podcast: Thirty Years in the Press

Scott Holleran on his journalism about the movies
Ang Lee’s “Brokeback Mountain” (2005, Focus Features)

My movies reporting originates with two 1993 films I reviewed when they were later released on home video; Swing Kids and Rudy. Both are emotionally powerful movies by my judgment. Both received sincere and passionate reviews by yours truly. By then, I was writing news, opinion, sports and features—i.e., articles about people, books, radio, interviews, broadcasting, arts and music—and other journalism. The climax of my movie journalism occurred after the turn of the century. For six years, I worked as a partner, writer and editor for Box Office Mojo, a movie website, which no longer resembles Brandon Gray’s original website, which he founded as a box office tracking source (it evolved upon my 2002 contracting as an editorial operation).
