20 Questions With Juliette Lewis

Ever notice that some of the best work your favourite actors pulled out were in movies Juliette Lewis was in? Cape Fear (Robert De Niro-she was also nominated for best supporting for that one too), Kalifornia (Brad Pitt), Romeo Is Bleeding (duh, Gary Oldman’s best to date), What’s Eating Gilbert Grape (Leo), and of course, Natural Born Killers where she machine gunned and peyote’d her way into our hearts, dragging Woody Harrelson with her. We always knew she was a rockstar on the inside and when Lewis made the move from the screen to the stage, it seemed like a perfect fit. She’s in town this Sat at Lee’s Palace thanks to Union, and she was kind enough to take our 20Qs (below). If you are in need of tickets, click right HERE.
