About Thomas Butt

Thomas Butt is a freelance writer. He is immensely passionate about the work of Martin Scorsese. For Thomas, movie theaters are a second home. He is often found scrolling through the scheduled programming on Turner Classic Movies and making more room for his physical media collection. He looks to cinema as an outlet to better understand the world, human emotions, and himself.
