American actress and model Julia Garner is called "peculiar" because of her roles. In most films, she plays girls with behavioral peculiarities, with some deviations and psychological “shifts”. As the actress herself says - with her heroes forever "something is wrong."
However, the actress herself is exactly in order - she is very much in demand in the profession: filming in films interspersed with filming in TV shows and the work of the model, so you need to strain all your strength to withstand such a rhythm.
Biography
Julia's whole family is creative people. Her mother is an actress, although she has the profession of therapist, her father is an artist, her older sister is an artist and producer. Julia was born in 1994 in the Bronx, and her parents thought she would follow in their footsteps. However, her daughter grew very shy and did not believe that she could do creativity.
Then her mother enrolled her in acting classes. Little by little the clamps went away, Julia loosened up and got into a taste. As soon as she began to make her first successes, she was invited to the role in the short film "Julia." This work was so liked by the young actress that she firmly decided to connect her life with the cinema.
Career
In 2010, Garner got a small role in the film "Martha, Marcy May, Marlene" - a thriller about a girl who is experiencing fear of persecution of the sect. After this role, critics say, "her star began to rise." And the actress herself told the recipe for her albeit small, but already noticeable success. She said that if she likes to do something, then she does it no matter what. And in the end, everything turns out. Apparently, by this principle she overcame her embarrassment, and by this principle she continued to trail the path in the profession.
Two years later, the daughter could brag to her parents that they had given her the main role - it was the film "No longer Children". Here, Julia created the image of the 15-year-old Rachel, who lived in the Mormon community, where there were very strict orders and continuous prohibitions. She very well portrayed a modest and quiet girl who once found a cassette of rock music at home. This music struck her, stunned her, but the main intrigue was that she soon realized that she was pregnant. Parents try to hide the shame, and Rachel escapes to Las Vegas to find the singer from the tape.
In this film, Rory Culkin became a partner of Julia, and their duet was highly praised by critics.
Despite the fact that the fame of a "peculiar" actress has already managed to gain a foothold in Garner, she is invited to the melodrama "It Is Good to Be Quiet", where she played the girlfriend of Charlie - the main character. On the same platform with Julia were such celebrities as Emma Watson and Paul Rudd.
Since 2013, a special period begins in Garner's life: one after another, offers in horror films, thrillers and dramas follow. Especially bloodthirsty was the tape "We are what we are", where Julia played the killer in the guise of an angel. The film can frighten many with its cruelty, but it has received several prestigious awards. This terrible thriller strikes not so much with an abundance of blood, but with the very idea of cannibalism, which is preached in a decent family at first glance.
The next film, in which Julia starred, cannot be called simple either: the horror “The Last Exile of the Devil” (2013) places her heroine Gwen in a girls' shelter, where the demon moved in. The actress masterfully portrayed these eerie scenes where Gwen revealed her obsession.
In 2015, the shooting load for Garner increased even more: she starred in the comedy "Grandmother", which also involved the famous actress Lily Tomlin. Julia played her granddaughter Sage. This is such a family movie in the style of road movie, when meeting with different people helps the heroine to figure out her problems. And in contrast to the next year - the role of the daughter of the CIA officer in the project "Americans", where Julia played several seasons.
This continues to this day: either a television project, or a modeling business, or a full-length film. For example, in 2017, she was waiting for a role in the fantastic drama "Everything Beautiful Is Far" and a partnership with Joseph Cross, known for the movie "Harvey Milk" and the series "Elementary." And in the same year - a role in the series "Ozark", which is considered one of the best in the portfolio of the actress. Here, Julia plays the potential criminal Ruth Langmore, who is not particularly burdened with pangs of conscience and is closely connected with the criminal world. She lives in the town of Ozark, where crimes are committed, but cannot be found guilty. The series was so popular that instead of one season I had to shoot two. Viewers greeted the continuation as warmly as the first part of the project.
Garner was pleased with her role, the whole story that they showed along with Jason Bateman and Laura Linney, as well as other partners.
Of the recent work of Julia Garner, the series "The Waco Tragedy", "Maniac" and "Dirty John" can be noted.
