Juliet Stevenson Movies
Ranked among Great Britain's most esteemed stage actresses,
Juliet Stevenson also occasionally lends her talent to film and television productions. In film, she received the most acclaim for
Truly, Madly, Deeply (1991). A graduate of London's Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, she first made waves in classical theater in the early '80s. She also occasionally worked in more modern productions, such as Ariel Dorfman's Death and the Maiden, for which Stevenson originated the role of the vengeful Paulina. In 1987, Stevenson entered television in the British/American film
Helix/
The Race for the Double Helix (1987). She followed this up with several feature films, making her American debut co-starring with
