Team Startefacts

Violetta is a news writer at Startefacts who has joined the team in 2023 with a focus on celebrity news, explainers, and movie reviews.

An amateur-turned-professional cinephile who still hasn’t decided on her favorite film, Violetta finds joy in good old musicals, Martin Scorsese’s epic films, and, well, the captivating melancholy of Paul Mescal’s 24/7 depressed characters. But movies aren’t her only passion. In between suffering through long hiatuses (hi, House of the Dragon and Stranger Things), Violetta has plenty of time to dive into other series. White Lotus? Watching that. Only Murders in the Building? More like only binging in the building. The Last of Us? That's a detour from her usual genre preferences, but a great one. And of course, the all-time favorite Desperate Housewives, because nothing can beat revisiting the classics. Violetta keeps a curated watchlist while constantly seeking fresh gems on streaming platforms, and why yes, she will tell you all about them.
