Biography:
Charles Kirkland Jr. is working film critic that has been reviewing movies for the last twelve years. He got his start as when he appeared on the radio show Spectrum which aired on WMAL 105.9 in Washington, DC. He would appear on the show to promote the activities of the DC Film Society, review movies and discuss the Oscars. After being pronounced an “Award Predictor” by a group at the Film Society, he started my podcast, The DC Film Life in September of 2013. With his co-host Michael Bryant, The DC Film Life, “where real guys talk about real movie stuff,” reviewed movies and movie trends and became the go-to podcast site for filmmakers in the city to promote their projects. While the podcast has temporarily podfaded, currently his reviews and musings can be found on the Facebook site, The DC Film Life. Since the end of the podcast, he has gone on to write for the websites, Thefilmgordon.com, RogerEbert.com and idobi.com. Charles hosts a show on DC Radio (DCradio.gov) called Conversations where he discusses movies and interviews filmmakers. He is a co-host of the show, Keeping It Reel with Film Gordon where he reviews movies and talks about the entertainment world on a weekly basis. Keeping it Reel can be found on DC Radio, Youtube, Blogtalk radio and many other outlets. He is a longstanding member of the Publicity Committee of the DC Film Society, a member in good standing of the Washington DC Area Film Critics Association (WAFCA), a voting member of the Black Reel Awards and a reviewing judge for the DC Shorts Festival. He also serves as the Features Programmer for the Lakefront Film Festival in nearby Columbia, MD.
