Kelly Reichardt is widely recognised as one of America's finest contemporary filmmakers. Even among her admirers, however, 2013's Night Moves is all too often considered an unsuccessful and ill-advised foray into genre territory. In this book, Dominic Lash and David R J Stent engage in a sustained attempt to put forward an alternative view. Via twenty-four letters, two friends and musical collaborators - one of whom works professionally in film studies, the other having a background in experimental writing and publishing as art practice - work through the film from beginning to end. By turns informal and rigorous, speculative and minutely observed, this book is both a love letter to an unfairly neglected film and an experiment in critical form.

Dominic Lash is a film scholar and a musician active in improvised and experimental music. As well as articles in journals such as Screen, Movie, and Film-Philosophy, he has published four monographs on cinema: The Cinema of Disorientation (Edinburgh University Press, 2020); Robert Pippin and Film (Bloomsbury, 2022); Cure (BFI Film Classics, 2024); and Haunting the World (SUNY Press, 2025).
