I’m James Kenney

I write and I teach and I raise some kids with my wife. I saved the only copy of Peter Bogdanovich’s final film, SQUIRRELS TO THE NUTS and returned it to him seven years after he shot it. The film premiered at the New York Museum of Modern Art in March 2022 and I have been presenting it around the country. I am currently working on books about my experiences with Peter and the film and on Delaurentis Entertainment Group, my favorite film studio of all time. I wrote a piece about Michael Pare that he personally thanked me for and then blocked me on Twitter because he was a Trump supporter. I still like Mike! My work and research has been featured in the New York Times, the New Yorker, and Sight and Sound magazine.
