Long Pauses is the personal website of Darren Hughes, a technology professional, freelance writer, and film programmer in Knoxville, TN. I’m the co-founder of The Public Cinema and the Artistic Director of Film Fest Knox (coming fall 2023).

Launched in 2001, Long Pauses was one of the first blogs dedicated primarily to international and art cinema. It now serves primarily as an archive of my writing and programming. I can also be found on Twitter and Letterboxd.
