This is a little off the subject, but I've always wondered how those few casting calls for characters who are supposed to actually look ugly to audiences sound. One of my favorite movies when I was young was A League of Their Own, which had a character like that. I always wondered if the actress felt bad during the audition and filming if she was basically being reminded "you're playing this part because you're ugly and you know it."

I don't know if you watch OITNB, but that's how I feel about the actress that plays Pennsatucky (sp?). She is just so ugly on the show, and you know that's what they were going for.

It's a two-sided coin.

You have the example above, where a conventionally attractive woman is cast into the ugly role, and has to be uglified a bit to play her.

But then there are people who are incredibly homely, and are cast just for that reason.

In a way both people succeed. If you have to be made ugly, whoo! ego boost! And if you are what others consider ugly, then whoo! acting career! Because c'mon, if Steve Buschemi was any plainer, he wouldn't have an acting career.


(then there are always be people who are gorgeous to some, yet I consider absolutely hideous. Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman, and the guy who plays Hawk-Eye... I'm looking at all you and it's giving me the creeeeps)

My sister picks up a lot of casting call sheets around here, and no lie, they usually say 'standard good looks' when they mean 'ugly character' and 'striking good looks' when they aren't.
