Juliet Landau Quotes

I loved dancing. I still use my dance background in the different physicality`s of each character I work on. Once I started studying acting, I was energized and excited by the verbal exchange, having a conceptual communication of what was being expressed. As a dancer, I was technically very proficient. But for me, dancing was always about expressing something more. With acting you add the component of language to the above.

I`ve been really fortunate in the fact that I`ve gotten a chance to do a real wide range of all different kinds of characters. Drusilla is amazing, and is such a rich character, and then to go from that and work on a New York Italian character, to get that diversity of roles. That`s what makes me tick. I love that I`ve gotten a chance to do a lot of that.

I have an action figure, and so do my parents, so it`s odd that we all have these dolls of ourselves. It`s a little bit surreal but kind of fun. You can play with the whole family.

I`ve always wanted to do a period movie, to do something the turn of the century and I`m really fascinated by that whole time period. It`s been really so interesting through Buffy to get to visit some of that. Although I can say that corsets aren`t really very comfortable.

I like working in both movies and television. Television is faster, not very much rehearsal and a lot of material is shot in a day. Big budget movies are luxurious in terms of the schedule. Independent films often shoot fast as well.
