Has anyone besides Anna Paquin played a high schooler in movies released in three different decades?


Often but not always "jailbait" characters oozing with dangerous sexuality.

The first one (at least the first one I saw) was "Hurlyburly" in 1998. Then a couple others in the Nineties; at least one in the first decade of the 21st century ("25th Hour") and I suppose Rogue counts as well; and then 2011's "Margaret".

I realize "Margaret" was actually filmed in 2005, but it still counts! That's three separate decades in which audiences had new releases to watch with Anna Paquin playing a girl in high school. Gotta be a record.

I certainly hope not.

Hey, Keiko Agena played high schooler Lane Kim in the early 2000's, when she was in her late twenties. If she had started acting when she was actually in high school in the late Eighties, she could have pulled it off!
