Your movie curator

Hi, I’m Pete Volk, your curator for this week. As the senior curation editor, I have a deep love for movies of all genres. My main areas of interest include action movies (especially martial arts), classic Hollywood comedies (shout out to Ernst Lubitsch), and staying up to date with new releases from around the globe. So far, I have watched 154 movies from 2023 and 13 from 2024.
