Two things about this movie that I would never know


1 - Cameron Diaz plays the character Lotte?! Whaaat?

2 - The character Maxine is NOT played by Jessica Biel? Well, it does make sense since she had only 17 in 1999, but still.

Does anyone share those feelings?

reply

Sorry but no. Great movie though, one of my favorites.

So you really knew it was Cameron Diaz before read it somewhere (DVD case, magazine, website, whatever)?

I mean, you went to watch the movie and when Lotte appears you thought "hey, it's Cameron Diaz"...

reply

Yeah I saw the movie already knowing that it was her, so I can see your point. I've always found her to be very unattractive, I don't get why people like her for her looks. Not a bad actress though.

I didn't recognize her at first, but the voice was familiar, and it finally came to me.

I still look at the film and say that's not Cameron Diaz. She is really totally unrecognizable IMO.

I did recognize Catherine Keener as Maxine and she is just so comical/sexy in the funniest role I've ever seen her play.🐭
