Sam Fragoso

I’m Sam Fragoso, a 16 year-old high school student whose passion for film is endless. Born and raised (until this past year) in Chicago, IL, I received my drive and motivation from my parents who continue to guide and help me as a writer. Besides viewing, writing, and discussing film, I play tennis, basketball, and at one time was forced to partake in a ball-room dance class (emphasis on forced). Back in 2009 I founded my website, Duke & The Movies, and since, the site and myself as a writer, has progressed immensely. You can follow me on twitter @DukeSensation – where you can see me get upset about politics, awful films, and how I always have difficulty fitting my message in a “140 characters”. But lets talk not about that.
