What was with the casting of Audrey in this?


Why'd they cast such an ugly odd looking girl to play her? she just looked so odd, plus she seemed older than she was like she was a dwarf or something. She also had a funny sounding voice.

The actress was Dana Hill and it was actually a sad story. She was diagnosed young with type I diabetes that effected her growth (she was about 21 when European Vacation was released). She had health problems because of this her entire life until she died at 32.
