Julia Talakh
Julia is a news writer and fan of everything Damien Chazelle does. And Robert Eggers. And Luca Guadagnino. Well, it’s hard to pick one.
She loves finding true hidden gems in the movie world, like Coherence and Ink, and then sharing them with others – because young aspiring directors deserve to be seen. Her main areas of interest are offbeat horror, large-scale TV dramas, and 2000s rom-coms – because who can resist these? She loves well-thought-out characters who might make you throw the remote at the TV but won't raise any questions about their motivation – yes, Livia Soprano, we're talking about you.
Julia's main activity while watching a movie or TV show is crying: at the magnificence of the moment when Théoden screams "Death!", at the opening song in La La Land, at the grand finale of Dark, and at Rust Cohle's monologues in True Detective.
