As an enthusiastic supporter of classic movies, Kristina not only writes about film on her website, Speakeasy, and in The Dark Pages Newsletter, she co-hosts numerous blogathons including the annual Great Villains Blogathon and the O Canada! Blogathon.

She's introduced many well-known films to new classic movie fans, but you might say her speciality is discovering and promoting lesser-known gems. One such film is Highway 301.
"The 1950 crime movie Highway 301 is a good
example of all the reasons I do this," says Kristina. "It's the excitement of discovering a new
favourite, of seeing some memorable technique and style, spotting connections
to iconic and modern films, and the fun of highlighting underrated and overlooked
people and movies."
