About ★ Alex
Alex Vause★In just a few days she’s managed to set hearts ablaze with a ferocity
of which I haven’t seen before. So why is that? I feel that often the physicalization of actors is overlooked,
with more of an emphasis on the emotional output. I believe that it is Laura Prepon’s ability to physicalize
her intentions – whether it be a play for power, vulnerability, desire - that makes Alex Vause as compelling
as she is★ The way Prepon’s Alex walks into a room, how she plants her feet, how every part of her is totally solid,
sends unconscious signals to the audience. It says, “I’m in control, you can trust me.” Which is weird,
because we can’t and neither can Piper and that’s what’s so amazing and delicious about the whole thing★
Alex uses her glasses to shield herself. When she’s in control, they stay on. When she wants to truly see,
or be seen, she takes them off. [DanaPiccoli]

Quotes
"Rule No. 1: Don't fall in love with a straight girl."

"I think that when you have a connection with someone
it never really goes away, you know? You snap back to
being important to each other because you still are."
