Both chicks with short hair


I kept getting the two chicks with short hair mixed up. Their faces kinda looked alike too. I wonder why they didn't cast actresses that looked less alike...or at least had different hair legnths.

I agree with you--for a minute I thought it was the NSA chick in the coffee shop. I wish that casting, make-up and hair folks would in general ensure more unique looks for characters so that it's easier to keep track of them.

One of my favorite things about Kim Dickens, besides everything, is that she looks like no one else.


Perhaps the OP just wants to reach out for some sense of community.

I agree about the hair length. But the movie directors do that all the time. It's annoying. As if there are not enough young actresses out there who look different!

I don't know if anybody ever watched the Humphrey Bogart thriller "Conflict" on TCM?
It's about a man who killed his wife and later after she is killed, there is a telephone operator in a scene taking place at the Rainbow Lodge who really looks like the killed wife's doppelganger. It was unintentional, because she never shows up in another scene later on. But couldn't somebody on the set notice how similar both women looked while they were watching the daylies?
