Film people! Which are your favorite blogs or sites for reading about the film world, new films etc.?

I am not looking for industry warhorses like Variety and the like, but smaller and edgier outlets, especially online. Completely fine if they are not in print.
Thanks!

  • Hi Christiane!

    I'd love it if you checked out my film site 'Privilege of Legends'. I've written over 50 essays, reviews and interviews - and the site is dedicated to unearthing cinema from all over the world that doesn't get as much exposure in mainstream press:
