‘The Julia Set’ Review: Chase Infiniti Confirms Her Movie-Star Mettle in Niki Byrne’s Riveting Math-Geek Bad Romance

She plays a math prodigy who falls into an affair with her dream-preppie TA. An unwise idea, but the movie plays it out with startling conviction.

There are two major pieces of news to come out of “ The Julia Set ,” the nothing-short-of-terrific new movie that premiered tonight at the Toronto Film Festival. It’s the first movie to feature Chase Infiniti since her breakout role as the Leonardo DiCaprio character’s daughter in “One Battle After Another,” and the first piece of news is that it confirms her movie-star mettle and astonishing quality of lyrical wised-up innocence as an actor.
