New York Magazine’s previous film critic, Peter Rainer, will continue to write for the magazine in other capacities and will remain a contributing editor.
And who didn't see this coming: Kurt Andersen will write a bi-weekly column. The co-founder of Spy magazine and Inside.com — himself a former editor-in-chief of New York — joins the magazine in January.
