Biography |
Alexis Dziena grew up in the City of New York, and has
always had a passion for performing. “I've played the piano
since I was 3,” she says. “I studied cello and I'm learning
drums. I dabble with guitar, but I'm not very good at it.”
It’s OK that Alexis isn’t a musical virtuoso, because when
you can act as well as she can, most people will overlook
your other shortcomings.
A professional actress since the age of 18, Alexis made her
television debut in a 2002 episode of Witchblade. One year
later, “Wonder Girl,” as she’s known to friends, made a
splash on the big screen with an impressive starring role in
Season of Youth. Since then, she has appeared in a handful
of critically acclaimed films including Bringing Rain
(2003), Wonderland (2003), Strangers with Candy (2005), and
The Great New Wonderful (2005).
It was her role, however, as Lolita Miller in Broken Flowers
that proved to be her breakthrough. Playing Sharon Stone’s
feisty daughter, Alexis’ comedic performance was a tour de
force that kept the film's star, Bill Murray, on his toes.
She also kept moviegoers talking long after the closing
credits, thanks to her jaw-dropping nude scene. “It was a
lot scarier in concept than it was in actuality,” she says
of the scene. “It was kind of fun.” |
