From ET Online Sorry..clip of Katie is in sucky Windows Media I guess this is what they were promoting on ET yesterday... Julia's 'Wicked' Screen Test August 21, 2001 It's the screen test that led JULIA STILES to stardom, and ET has your first look! Back in 1998, the plucky 'Save the Last Dance' star auditioned for a little-seen film called 'Wicked' and won the coveted lead role. It was her breakthrough performance in this film, which screened at the Sundance Film Festival, that led to '10 Things I Hate About You' -- and stardom! Ironically, some stiff competition, KATIE HOLMES, RACHAEL LEIGH COOK and 'Roswell''s MAJANDRA DELFINO, all lost out to Julia for the part. A twisted, tongue-in-cheek, Lolita-like tale of lust and murder, 'Wicked' won Julia the Best Actress award at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Directed by MICHAEL STEINBERG ('The Waterdance,' 'Bodies, Rest & Motion'), the story follows a dysfunctional suburban family and how they cope after their mother is mysteriously murdered. The oldest daughter literally takes her place, dressing in her clothes and seducing her father, while a quirky detective investigates the crime and finds many suspects -- each with something to hide. Previously seen only at film festivals, 'Wicked' will finally be available for all to see on video and DVD on August 28. Clip of Katie's audition Link to article
