Marie Grace Stephens

Short intro/Who are you?:

Hi…my name is Marie Grace Stephens and I’m a screenwriter/filmmaker/rocket scientist and circus performer…

Oh, and I raise pygmy weasels in my off time…

I’m just kidding about the ‘rocket scientist’ part…

1) What are the top two questions you're sick of being asked - and, their answers?

 Well…I can’t think of questions I’m sick of…but these were asked just yesterday…and by the same person ironically…

A) Marie, Have you killed again?!

ANSWER:   Maybe…

B) Did you bake that banana bread?!

ANSWER:  Maybe…

2) What's a few of your pet-peeves, or in the words of George Carlin, 'psychotic fuckin' hatreds?'

People who ask me what my pet peeves are…

3) What's the crappiest movie you've ever seen? What makes it the worst for you?

I tried to watch “Manos”—The hands of fate… with the MST3k treatment…and it was still ‘un-watchable’…

What makes it worse is that this was a type of creative vision of some sort…and I wouldn’t want to be in that guy’s head…

4) What song would you consider to be your absolute guiltiest pleasure?

I don’t have a song per se…but I have guilty pleasures…
Do you want to know about the legal ones or the illegal ones?

5) If you were on Death Row, what would it be for and what would your last meal be?

Not sure…but at this point in my life...probably murder…and that’s not a confession…by the way…

And my meal would involve chocolate…the good stuff…not the cheap crap…I’d ask for the most rare and expensive chocolate…because it would take them longer to get it…and then I could keep working on my escape plan…

6) When a song that you know, but dislike, comes on- do you still sing to it?

Hell no! I’m afraid that shit will get stuck in my head and torment me all day…so when I hear I song I hate…I immediately start singing a song I love…hoping that one will stick…instead of the bad one…there’s nothing worse for me than hearing a horrible song play over and over in your head all day… (Damn you, Celine Dion…)

7) Do you relate to the majority of heroes or villains in stories?

Hmmm…there’s a hero and villain inside all of us…so I think I identify with both…especially when I wear a cape…

8) Do you collect anything that other people find strange for YOU to, personally, collect?

I don’t think so…I collect PEANUTS memorabilia and silent film memorabilia…

But maybe my voodoo doll collection could creep people out…I have to admit…I’ve gotten some weird looks from people… especially when the doll looks like them…

9) What side of the bed do you sleep on?

Whatever side my dogs haven’t stolen first… the little shits… 

10) What's the most ridiculous nickname anyone's ever given you?

Crazy voodoo lady…but that might be because of the dolls…

Shameless self promotion/shout outs/any last words:
