You can put as much makeup on Liza as you want...
...and she'll still be ugly !!!

You're an idiot.
shareAwww...I think Liza has a very unique look, and is very lovely in this film (she has beautiful eyes)!
...eye of the beholder, I guess.
She played a supporting character on "Arrested Development" and there was a parody of her 'unique look' on the show. Well played, "Arrested Development"!
Giddy-up, goat!
Normally I would explain to you that part of Liza's charm is her uniqueness, but my guess is you'd rather watch someone like Blake Lively play her part, which, unfortunetly, is the way most people are now, including the idiots casting these so-called "actors" nowadays. (And no, I'm not old, I'm 28)
The same goes for Streisand and Cher. Neither one of them was particulary gorgeous in a traditional manner. Never have cared for any of their music, though they're all great musicians, inluding Liza, but I wish there were more stars like them today. They made things interesting. But then again, there weren't many dull actors in the late 60's, 70's, and early 80's. Even the sexpots (Kathleen Turner, Julie Christie), waspy types (Diane Keaton, Faye Dunaway, Sigourney Weaver), and blond bombshells (Jessica Lange, Goldie Hawn) were something extraordinary that you would never see today. Someone like Lange, (or any of them, take your pick), could play a housewife in one movie, play a femme fatale in another, and a bookish type in another. Can you imagine Jessica Biel or Kristen Bell doing that? Not to my taste.
And what good actors we have now that actually have potential to be great (Shia Lebouf, Scarlett Johanson, Colin Farell) are throwing out their integrity for paychecks in sequels, franchises, remakes, or comic book adaptations. It's quite sad actually.
So yeah, Liza may never have been a playboy model, but she will be remembered. Blake Lively? No thanks.
Hey kendoll, are you stoned. That much pointless rambling usually requires chemical enhancement.
shareOhhhh blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blaaahhh.
shareYou're not stoned, nor blabbing, nor rambling............you're right! consider that Taylor Swift was just cast as Eponine in the movie version of the musical Les Miserables..........my god, the humaniites!
and to you others, Scorsese liked her enough to cast her in this...AND has used Jessica Lange, Sharon Stone, Lorraine Bracco, Cameron Diaz, Vera Farmiga among others....and gotten Academy Awards noms and nods for 'em......so I do think he knows what he's doing....
She's not conventionally pretty but she's a force...
"Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly!"
I enjoy a unique look, but cmon she was hard to look at in this movie! And Strisand and Cher are beauties compared to her here.
shareI've never been a big wrap for her, but she was the rght choice in this movie IMO, considering the large musical content and narrative.
Where I think the movie lost the plot was in Robert De Niro's one note performance (small pun intended) over the course of a long film (boring) and arguably some poor directorial choices by Scorsese.
Excellent reply to some really insipid posts!
