A Warm Round of Applesauce

Please help me in welcoming Dan Kois, who'll be Movieline's critic-in-residence this week. Dan is a contributing writer at New York magazine and a film critic for the Washington Post. He was a founding editor of New York's culture blog, Vulture, and previously worked as a film development executive and a literary agent. His book for Continuum's 33 1/3 series, Facing Future, about the Hawaiian musician Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, will be published in November.
