#4. Mirela Oprisor and Maria Popistasu
Regardless of me never hearing about either of these actresses prior to seeing the film, Mirela Oprisor (small part in Coppola’s Youth Without Youth) and Maria Popistasu (David Yates’ television series Sex Traffic) landed major roles and delivered pitch perfect performances in Radu Muntean’s Tuesday, After Christmas. Oprisor plays the part of the one unaware of bad news about to hit her, while Popistasu plays the part of the one ready to make her own future in this triage drama. The film should find other film festival venues, but I expect both thesps to make further inroads in Romanian and other Euro projects.
