Couldn't find Mimi Rodgers in this


She was listed third on the cast list by my DirectTV guide, and listed high on the cast list here, but I couldn't find her (she's listed as "Ms. Brand") when I watcched this tonight. Not that it's a huge deal but she has a unique look (crazy eyes) and I would have thought she'd have stood out.

Did I miss something or was she left on the cutting room floor?

I noticed her once answering phones at Lucy's desk at the beginning when Lucy and Ben get back from the roof. She tells Ben his mom is on the phone.

She wasn't in the film, I think they listed Mimi Rogers instead of Ann Margaret.

She is in the film. She plays the other receptionist in the very beginning. She tells Ben his mother is on the phone.

Mimi Rogers simply made a SUPER quick cameo appearance answering the front desk phone, toward the beginning of the film, when she tells Colin Hanks' character that his mother (Ann Margaret) is on the phone for him (at about 9:20).

It was a very blink-and-you'll-miiss-it moment; she's on the screen less than 5 seconds in total. Not sure why such a minuscule appreance would garner a top-billing position at times. Perhaps it's a marketing mistake with distributors...or the filmmakers were hoping it would lure a bigger audience, but something like that is a gross misrepresentation.
