Brielle Barbusca
Who is your favorite actor/actress and why? I feel like I have a lot of favorites. I find myself consistently so impressed by performances in almost everything I watch. Just some off the top of my head are Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Michelle Williams, Frances McDormand, Sam Rockwell. Also is it really a favorite actors list if Meryl Streep isn’t on it? Tell us a little bit about the film you just worked on, Big-Time Adolescence? Big Time Adolescence is pretty much a coming of age story about a teenager looking up to someone who isn’t isn exactly someone he should be looking up to, and eventually realizing that….with a bunch of messed up things in between. How did you relate to the character you played? I found it pretty easy to for this particular role since my scenes were with my brother and we played siblings and we got to improv for a few takes as well, it was kind of like playing exaggerated versions of ourselves in our scenes. How did you end up getting casted for your part in Big Time Adolescence? I was cast in a pretty random way. My brother Thomas was attached to the movie, and I think he p mentioned me to the director. Next thing I knew I was written in to play his sister. Is acting what you've always wanted to do? Completely. I’ve been doing it since I was a kid and the idea of doing something else has never really crossed my mind. Describe an average day in the life of Brielle Barbusca: Firstly, it always starts copious amounts of coffee. The rest of the day kind of varies but it usually always includes work or an audition, keeping up on college assignments, trolling Instagram, and t then being ashamed at the amount of time I spent trolling Instagram. What do you like to doing your free time? I do a lot of reading in my free time. When I’m not doing things for work or school, my friends are awesome and like to drag me out of my house. Oh yeah and my dog. My dog is my life. If you weren't living in LA where do you think you would be living? If I wasn’t living in LA, I want to say maybe I’d be in New York.
