Jill’s mother... weird.
She was originally to be played by Lauren Graham who dropped out due to ‘script changes’ and ‘scheduling’ and was replaced by Mary McDonnell.
McDonnell is an excellent actress (great in Dances With Wolves, Matewan and Independence Day) but she’s really odd in this film...
1) She’s way older than Graham and looks more like Jill’s grandmother.
2) Her mouth doesn’t move, and she looks like she’s had more facial reconstruction than Cox.
3) For a great actress her character seems totally void of personality, like a cyborg.
