I think in Winter's Bone she looked more like what I thought pre make over Katniss would look like.
Yes.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I do think 16 year old girls often look like grown women on the outside.

On TV and in the movies maybe, but the ones I know in real life very rarely do.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
The ones I know in real life (read: are related to) certainly do. It's a plague.

Some do, some don't. I didn't(in my own estimation) yet I never got carded.

Yeah, I looked like a grown woman (I have pictures, and looking back, it's still true) from about 14 on. Physically, my features and body didn't change much from 14-21. In that range, I was assumed to be about 17/18 all the time.

And people have been thinking I was a grownup since I was about 13. And not because of any styling choices, most of the time.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Same here, except it was from 13 to 23 that people assumed I was 18.
The low point of all this was when I answered the door for a dinner guest (who was a colleague of my father) while holding my baby sister. He thought I was my mother. (Ugh!)
I'm sure my very teenagerish disgusted reaction set him straight fairly quickly, but I'm still grossed out by it.

I was 12 years old, wearing an empire-waisted peasant-style shirt that was really popular at the time (1978), and I was a fat kid. I was in line to get on one of those spin-really-fast-until-the-floor-drops rides at the local amusement park (Old Chicago, for any Chicagoistas who might remember the first-ever indoor theme park), and the teen girl running the ride asked me if I was pregnant. No, and ewwwww!!!
