LEWIS TURNS BACK ON HOLLYWOOD

Hollywood star JULIETTE LEWIS is leaving her film career behind her to concentrate on theatre roles.

Juliette Lewis perform during the photocall for the play 'Fool For Love' at the Apollo Theatre. London, England - 09.06.06

The NATURAL BORN KILLERS actress made her first appearance in London play FOOL FOR LOVE yesterday (15JUN06) and enjoyed the experience so much she's vowed to ditch Tinseltown for the stage.

The 32-year-old admits she's attracted to the unpredictable nature of live performances but also maintains theatre boasts bigger acting and producing talents than film.

She says, "Some of the best actors, actresses, film and theatre directors are here.

"My films have not really been mainstream. There's been a danger to them, they've been counter-culture and I was never just going to be a film actress.

But film is a film-maker's medium and at the end of the day I have a bigger love for a live experience."

"The American film world is very cookie cutter these days."
