There are some thing I don't need to see six stories tall, you know? Heath Ledger in a green fright wig is one of them.
That's one thing I precisely need to see. Was a sample of the makeup linked to here? It was horrifying. I really liked it.
Book ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I knew I wasn't pulling that idea out of the air!

Curse those artists who deviated from Gaiman's mental script! (Seriously, depending on who's drawing her, she looks anywhere from 16 to teetering on 30.)
Actual 17 year olds capable of playing Death? That's going to be brutally tough -- they're almost certainly going to have to go with someone older who can look youngish-ageless. Sarah Polley or Claire Danes or Natalie Portman could've maybe done it, maybe, when they were actually 17 themselves, but I'm not sure what current teenage actor has the depth and Deathiness to do it.
I totally don't have a problem with an actress who is not 17 or close to that playing Death. But I definitely think Clare Danes is too mature looking now. Also I don't know that she could have pulled off the blunt thing Death has so well.
Even though I'm not too familiar with Gaiman's Death, I nominate Ellen Page. She's young with major chops.
