I’m in the Mail on Sunday today with a review of the disturbing and stimulating new book The singularity is nearer by Ray Kurzweil!

I'm in the New Statesman today (and the mag next week) reviewing The Bikeriders! In which Austin Butler smoulders, pouts, howls, and fails to convey any sort of personality. Comer's pretty good tho. newstatesman.com/culture/film/2…

This conspires to be both a father-daughter road trip movie and an exploration of the traumatic legacy of the genocide. It fulfils neither brief. 🍿 @leafarbuthnot reviews Treasure newstatesman.com/culture/film/2…
