Film Criticism


In The Mood Magazine


Founded by Gabrielle Marceau and Sennah Yee, In The Mood Magazine is an online pop culture journal about the things we like to watch. Each issue delves into film, TV, and pop culture through expansive forms of criticism like personal essays, conversations, poetry, and film diaries.

In The Mood also includes the monthly newsletter Are You Still Watching? and a Film Recommendation Generator that provides a handpicked film recommendation for the user based on their mood, curated by over 50 artists.
