Jonathan's Rosenbaum's intentions for his new "archival" blog aren't very clear - but he recently highlighted an excellent overview of the work of Jacques Tourneur that written for the Chicago Reader in 2003.
Tourneur is an interesting figure - when everyone says someone is underappreciated, are they really? Granted, Tourneur isn't a household name, but he is a director whose work is easily accessible - many of his films show frequently on TCM (just set up a Tivo director search for him), and the Val Lewton box set contains 3 of his greatest films.
