Each third issue of the Apocalypse Later zine will be dedicated to film and most of those will be called The First Thirty. The concept here is to look at how major actors started out their careers by reviewing each of their first thirty films, in order. I'll post the reviews here but they'll be available in print in a quarterly zine, each dedicated to a single actor.
