Joshua Polanski’s Biography
I write about movies. More specifically, I like to write about digital filmmaking and special effects, philosophy and film, Turkish cinema, religious and spiritual film aesthetics, and Paul WS Anderson.
I studied religion and strategic communication at Calvin University in Grand Rapids, MI. It was at Calvin, an alma mater I share with Paul Schrader, where I first developed my love for writing about movies.
In 2022, I completed my Master of Theological Studies at Boston University. Given my academic interests, I accept pitches at the intersection of religion (of all sorts) and film.
