Was Ghost really 19 in this movie?


F#cking hell, she looks like 13.

In the industry we call them cigarette burns.

Yep, she was.
Emily Perkins was 23 when she played Brigitte in Ginger Snaps. She genuinely looked 15 in that movie.
The right make-up, lighting, acting, etc. can make actors look younger than they really are. That and the actor who played Ghost is pretty young looking in real life.

Had me fooled too. She really does look like a kid as Ghost. The kiddie sweater helps as does her acting. I was watching Diary of the Dead and she was in that too. Tatiana Maslany (Ghost) plays Mary Dexter in that movie.At first I had no clue it was her since she looked so different in that movie. When they showed her in close up I looked at here eyes and thought it looked like her. I was taken aback to see her name when the credits rolled as I thought there was no way it was the same person. She is very young looking.

The whole time I watched the movie I was thinking this girl could be 12 or a beat up looking 20 and I'm not surprised to learn that she was 19 during filming.

Got me fooled too, not difficult. Kinda spoils the best hoot line in the film -"shame you was such a cnut", me drink nearly shot across the room.

Only those with no valid argument pick holes in people's spelling and grammar.
