Agga'a age progression: Weird...


Does anybody know anything more about this movie? I just finished watching it and came in here in hopes of seeing some interesting trivia. What I'd really like to know more about is the duration of filming. Did they come back a few years later and complete the last few scenes of the movie in which the actress who plays Agga seems to have aged dramatically? And I'm not talking about the norm for films with child stars like, say 'Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace' for example, wherein the child clearly ages and grows beyond the confines of the fictional alotment of time that has passed in the film. This actress is clearly the same one, yet clearly much more mature physically.

Padded bra's and prosthetic make up can do wonders. Look at Dame Edna Everage!

If you want an amazing example of how age can be manipulated in movies by acting and makeup, watch Ludivine Sagnier go from Catherine in "8 Women" (2002) to Julie in "Swimming Pool" (2003). (We know that "8 Women" was shot during 2001, and not years earlier, because Virginie Ledoyen was pregnant during the shooting and gave birth on 29 September 2001.)
