Straw poll:

How old do you think this girl is? She plays a 14 year old in Matchstick Men.

Picture 1

Picture 2

Picture 3

Picture 4

Highlight below for the answer:

DOB:18 September 1979

Well it sure fooled me. On hindsight, though, "Now, she CAN'T be 14. Her features are too well defined for that.". Ahh, the benefits of hindsight.

Anyway I suck. More than half the people I polled on ICQ guessed at least 20. Bah.

Comments from the IMDB boards:

"When I first saw the commercial for Matchstick Men, and Nicolas Cage said something about a 14 year old daughter, I thought it was a joke - she looked at least 21, maybe more. But when I actually saw the movie, I did believe that she might be 14. Her face makes her look like she's in her 20's, but her body was a child's body: very small breasts, and a lack of body fat that's typical of barely-pubescent children. It was easier for me to believe that a child could have an adult looking face than that an adult would have a child's body, so I accepted her supposed age. I'm sure she could do well playing adult roles, though, if they dressed her to make her look a little curvier. She was a very good actress."

"I'm glad to find out that she isn't 14 years old, as depicted in Matchstick Men, because honestly, I was having dirty thoughts about her, and I would feel weird if she was really 14. Phew! Glad to know...."
