there was a show back in the early 90s (maybe even late 80s?) - I can't remember the name of the show - that had to do with teenage girls, and it was revealed after a while that one of the teenage girls was really in her thirties in real life (can't recall her name, but she had long dark hair). This was before social media and the prevalence of the internet, so I remember reading about it in magazines and seeing news clips of it on entertainment shows. I remember it caused some drama for the show and the producers after her real age was revealed, because as I recall some fans felt "lied to" or something like that.
EDIT to add: And no, I am not referring to Beverly Hills 90210!
And as far as this movie, I agree, the actress playing the daughter does do a good job in portraying a teen. But the father and daughter portrayals do not seem plausible - He does not pull it off that he is her father. Maybe if he was her stepdad, sure. But not her "real" father. They should have gone with a different actor. But this isn't some profound award winning movie, so it doesn't matter anyway, LOL.
