After the release of director Martin Scorsese’s thriller “Cape Fear,” Juliette Lewis, whose impromptu seduction scene with Robert De Niro was the kind that makes young careers, many wondered if she would ever work with such top talent again. After all, the next movie the 18-year-old actress shot, a small independent called “That Night,” co-starring pretty-boy C. Thomas Howell, is patiently awaiting a release date from Warner Bros. But in late November, when Woody Allen was having creative clashes with British actress Emily Lloyd on his new untitled film, he dropped Lloyd for Lewis, even though the swap meant some extensive re-shooting. Lewis plays a student of Allen’s, who essays a college professor. Lewis’ star is shining even brighter since last week, when she was nominated for a Golden Globe for her performance in “Cape Fear.” Speculation is that an Oscar nomination will follow.
