Hudson's Take on Things:
On
Callisto:
"But she's happy, she's a happy psychotic bitch. Always smiling!
Especially after she's killed someone."
"I would say that you can't really play a character without being it. I
understand her, I get the rage, I get the angst."
"Callisto
really doesn't understand Gabrielle at all, but she loves to play with her
emotions, because she's so sensitive."
"Umm,
well, you know what's strange about my career and the acting world? I either
play really bad, or I play angels. A normal human being would be
interesting, but then, I wouldn't have any reference point for that, would
I?"
"Hudson
was my grandmother's maiden name on my father's side, and my middle name. My
first name's Heidi. Heidi Hudson Leick, that's my full name. I have no idea
why Leick is our surname. Well ok, I have some idea!'"
On
her own "Callisto" line ideas:
..."Here, piggy, piggy,
piggy..." that's mine!"
"I
eat fish and eggs, and a little cheese...no red meat, chicken, lamb, pork
chops..."
"My
dream vacation...sailing to
India, studying yoga and Buddhism and Taoism all the while, eating fatty
foods! "
I
like films that move me emotionally -- I mean shake my world like The
Razor's Edge...Braveheart did that too...and a Japanese film called Red
Beard."
On
fighting with the Kevins of Hercules and Xena:
"My forearms
usually get pretty bruised by either one of the Kevins."
"If
you don't see my face [in fight scenes], then it's not me."
On
Callisto's popularity:
"I actually find people sympathetic
to her because the modern human being has so much repressed anger, that it
comes out crooked...and I think instinctually, subconsciously we know this
to be true as a culture, and hopefully by seeing this
brings more compassion to each
person's own anger. If not, people are just sick :-)"
"I
don't own a computer, nor would I know how to turn one on! But
my family keeps me updated on websites occasionally!"
"I
don't have a favorite author...But I'll tell what I'm reading now...One
Autobiography of a Yogi, The Alchemist, Siddartha, and
Lightening Bolt. I highly recommend those books!"
