Which real life person would you most want to play after that? You played Emma Borden in the Lifetime network’s Lizzie Borden movie and series. Everything there is amazing, and they have a very delicious ham and cheese croissant. There’s a bakery in Atwater called Proof. In Los Feliz I love a restaurant called Little Dom’s. What are a few favorite places in your neighborhood these days? When you are trying to make someone into who you want them to be, it becomes painful for both people. You can’t will them to be anything other than who they are, and shouldn’t. The person you’re in the relationship with is the person you’re always going to be in a relationship with. What is the biggest life lesson about relationships that you have learned so far? We stayed at this incredible hotel in Le Marais, Bourg Tibourg, and it was my favorite hotel other than the Chateau Marmont, which I think hands down is the best in the world. We just went to Paris, and I had never been there before. We’ve been together for almost four years, she’s not a public person, and I want to respect her privacy. I have a fiancé, but I don’t want to say her name. Relationships is a major theme in The Intervention. Even though I wished it had been a ghost tour and not crime tour, since ghosts are more fun. I could have stayed on that tour and listened to him talk all night. We went on this true-crime tour during our last weekend and the guide who took us was this super-fascinating Savannah native. Anywhere you put a camera in that city it’s going to be beautiful.ĭid you meet any eccentric local characters? It’s so haunting and strange and there is so much life to it, but also such a darkness underneath all the beauty, and I find it fascinating. Was it very much like Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil? What did you think? The film was shot in and outside Savannah, Georgia. We were all out of our league and it was a bust, but eventually it worked out for that person. We didn’t have someone like a Candy Finnigan from A&E’s Intervention show to help. It was someone who had a substance-abuse problem, and they were just not ready, and we all didn’t know what we were doing. Have you ever staged an intervention in real life? While DuVall has taken on many queer roles over her career, she only opened up about her own lesbian identity (and having a girlfriend) while doing press for The Intervention’s release.ĭuVall currently has a few onscreen and off-screen projects in the works, and has since directed the music video “Boyfriend” for Canadian electropop act (and lesbian twins) Tegan & Sara, whose Sara Quinn composed The Intervention’s score. She went on to appear in genre films like The Astronaut’s Wife and Ghosts From Mars, intense dramas 21 Grams, Zodiac, The Laramie Project, and Argo, and TV series Heroes, American Horror Story: Asylum, and Better Call Saul. The Los Angeles–based DuVall made her onscreen debut in 1996’s Little Witches. In the film, DuVall and Cheerleader co-star Natasha Lyonne reunite as girlfriends who, along with a fellow group of paired-off friends, stage an intervention for a dysfunctional couple that goes deliciously awry. LONG A FAMILIAR FACE TO LGBT audiences thanks to memorable turns in 1999 cult lesbian comedy But I’m A Cheerleader, that same year’s Oscar-nominated Girl, Interrupted, Lifetime’s 2014 movie Lizzie Borden Took an Ax and 2015 follow-up series The Lizzie Borden Chronicles, and, in 2016, HBO’s Veep (as the secret-service agent girlfriend of First Daughter Catherine), openly gay actress Clea DuVall has now stepped behind the camera as writer/director of Sundance crowd-pleaser The Intervention, a The Big Chill-inspired dramedy.
