Meet the Filmotomy Team

Editor-in-chief

I make sure it's known the company's in business. I'd see that it had a certain panache. That's what I'm good at. Not the work, not the work... the presentation.

Carson Timar
Film Critic

I have been talking film online since 2015 and continue to explore the rich history of cinema. Love pretty much any Yasujirō Ozu or Timothée Chalamet project and can nearly quote Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again which I saw 9 times in theaters.

She has been drawn to film since a young age, starting with a penchant for classic films (Fond memories of first seeing Bringing Up Baby and Rebecca stay with her always) which fueled a desire to discover more about the art form.

Christiana Petrache
Film Critic

High school student living life through motion pictures and vintage music, aspiring to become a film critic and producer. I’m currently writing for Dissection & Reflection and looking forward to going to uni and studying Film. I wish I could use a time machine and visit a reality in which I have not seen “Dark” and “Interstellar” yet, so I could experience all the emotional turns and witness the mind-blowing plot twists once again. My favourite directors are Christopher Nolan, Quentin Tarantino and Wes Anderson, because their features are quite polar opposites.

Who is Jonathan Holmes, you ask? If you believe that darkness of a movie theater is your ally, then the shadows betray you. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t see the light until I was already a man; by then, it was nothing to me but blinding! Okay, I kid, but, really, I’m just another movie fanatic who feels more at home in the dark, with the projector rolling. Now, I get to write reviews about my time in the dark and the light on the screen.

A Math teacher from San Juan, Puerto Rico. A film enthusiast and an everyday learner of this art. If he's not tweeting about sports or finding ways so kids fall in love with Math, he's surely watching one of the many films from his infinite watch-list, or just re-watching Spirited Away for the nth time.

Born in Belgium, living in London. Have a weak heart from cheesy rom-coms (my ice-cream is already in the fridge, just in case). Love a good Marvel marathon or an intense thriller. Film related highlight: Interviewing J.K. Simmons. Ultimate dream: Going to the Oscars.
