Except that picture of Reese Witherspoon looked like someone Photoshopped her head on a smaller body, b/c her head looked disproportionately large.
That's how most actresses you've seen regularly on screen are built. S has said just about every name actress she's ever worked with, including Cameron Diaz, Renee Zellwegger, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Lauren Ambrose, Kathleen Quinlan, Patricia Arquette, Jessica Lange, Kim Basinger, Drew Barrimore, Jennifer Tilly and Meg Ryan, among many, many others, are all built like that, with heads disproportionately large for their bodies.
It's a thing. Apparently it looks good on camera. To have a head disproportionately large for your body.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can see Kiera wearing that to a Pirates I premiere, no problem. I can't see Halle wearing that outfit to any showbiz related real-world event ever.
Patrick Stewart defends the fandom.
That interviewer was awful! The only reason I'd publish that interview would be to show up my reporter, because she looks so bad.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
heads disproportionately large for their bodies.
I've always assumed this was a side-effect of film/tv actresses having disproportionately small bodies. It's really hard to lose weight in one's head.

I think that's exactly it, Jess.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
For some reason, though, that picture of Reese Witherspoon was notably disproportionate. Maybe it was the angle or something.
(Or her GREAT BIG HEAD!)

I think it's actors in general. I remember Allyson talking about the costume display at the Arclight when Brokeback came out. Leetle tiny clothes, BIG hats.

I think the big head thing must look good in close-ups, and the losing weight thing sort of came about because of that (Jessica Lange seems naturally skinny, for example). Also, currently, Patricia Arquette has a nice, normal body (although sometimes I think she needs a better bra!

It's definitely a thing. An actor friend of mine said another friend was told by her agent that she didn't get sent out for Film/TV auditions because her head was too small.

Have any of you read the NYT article about people breaking up with people because of their literary tastes?
Would you break up with someone who read something too lowbrow?
