My name is Steven C and I am a cinephile.
My love of movies traces back to the summer of 1997, when I prided myself on two things: memorizing the summer’s new releases in the paper on Friday mornings and having insider knowledge on all of Disney’s upcoming animated features. My interest in film eventually grew to be more than an obsession with future releases and evolved into a love of the impact of great storytelling. The emotions I felt after walking out of the theater after a great or merely enjoyable film were special enough to the point where I mulled over pursuing screenwriting while in high school.
I chose the more career-practical storytelling method by pursuing a journalism degree from the University of Missouri, where I graduated in May 2009. In college, I turned to Netflix as an encyclopedia of cinematic knowledge (and an all-too-successful distraction), became an avid reader of movie sites and started reviewing everything I saw on imdb.com. To date I have more than 450 reviews posted on imdb, nearly all of which are films I’ve seen since December 2007. Deciding my hobby was too intense to be just that, I began Movie Muse in August 2009 to combine and share my equally strong passions of film and writing and to help build a resume toward the goal of possibly doing it professionally.
My prolificness on imdb as well as Movie Muse has most recently earned me the job of movie section lead for a gaming/film/TV and other time-consuming forms of entertainment site called PlayerAffinity.com. Please go check it out!
