Dhany Wahyudi
Dhany Wahyudi has been passionate about writing since his high school days, when he contributed to a section in the school magazine. He also penned several short stories, one of which was published in a youth magazine. Introduced to the world of cinema at a young age, Dhany frequently watched movies in theaters with his family.
In an effort to express himself, Dhany began writing film reviews and sharing information about movies on his Facebook account and personal blog in 2012. He also joined film and literature forums, although his participation was limited. Seeking to expand his skills, Dhany became a freelance writer and composed several film articles for Bacaterus.com in 2015.
After taking a break to complete his studies and focus on work, Dhany resumed writing film reviews for Bacaterus.com in 2020, with a particular emphasis on Hollywood films.
Danny & Film
Dhany has a wide range of hobbies, some of which he has pursued professionally. His love for the film world, especially Hollywood movies, was sparked by the awe-inspiring scene of Moses parting the sea in The Ten Commandments (1956).
During his teenage years, when the Indonesian film industry was dormant, Dhany spent more time watching Hollywood and Hong Kong movies, particularly those featuring Jet Li. He would always catch new releases at the local cinema on their opening day.
Dhany has not missed a single Hollywood film released from 2000 to the present. In addition to watching movies, he also listens to and collects a wealth of information about the film industry to broaden his knowledge.

Dhany & Film
