Hello there and thanks for reading! My name is Riikka, I was born in Finland but I am currently residing in the rainy Scotland, where I am working on my MA degree on Film and History of Art. I am an aspiring film-maker, who loves quirky, off-beat, obscure and ground-breaking indie films. My biggest passion in life is traveling, meeting new people and getting to know their stories.
I first noticed Scarlett Johansson when The Horse Whisperer came out back in 1998. I was intriqued by Scarlett because she was my age, and yet so accomplished. I did not really become a 'fan' until I saw her subtle and natural performance in Lost in Translation, which in time became my favorite film. I have been following her career very closely ever since. I even had the chance to meet her a couple of times at the Venice Film Festival back in 2004 and 2006. I think Scarlett is one of the most promising actresses of her generation and she already has so many amazing movies on her belt. I consider her my favorite actress and an inspiration with her amazing style, outspoken nature, involvement in various charities and her all around awesomeness!
