“AFI, like Letterboxd, has always been really focused on community, so it’s fantastic to have them join our devoted community of film fans,” said Letterboxd Editor-In-Chief Gemma Gracewood. “Their work in preserving cinema’s past, honoring today’s storytellers and nurturing future filmmakers is pivotal to this art form we all love. Having AFI on Letterboxd makes it that much easier for members to add AFI recommendations to their watchlists and engage in the Institute’s rich history.”
