#Annabeth gish young movie#
One of the reasons the film is wonderful is Annabeth Gish, who still lives in Cedar Falls, Iowa, and might possibly become a great American movie actress. Her current film, " Mystic Pizza" (opening Friday in Chicago), is an observant and heartwarming film about three teenage girls in the summer after high school graduation. Since then, she has appeared in " Hiding Out," a dumb teenage comedy the still-unreleased " Shag," said to be an intelligent teenage comedy, and "Hero in the Family," a Disney made-for-TV movie. It was an important role - in some ways, the most important in the movie - and there were 600 girls at the casting call, but Annabeth got the role, and when the reviews came out, almost all of them singled her out for a performance of stunning power. They were looking for a girl to play Jon Voight's stepdaughter in " Desert Bloom," a movie about a disturbed family in Nevada in the early 1950s.
When she was 13, she "enjoyed acting and wanted to pursue it if I could." So she went to an audition at a casting agency in Minneapolis, which is the big city when you are from Cedar Falls. This is the kind of person for whom good things fall out of the heavens because she so clearly deserves them. Her name is Annabeth Gish, her dad is an English professor, her mom teaches gifted children and she is in the movies.
She is a high school senior in Cedar Falls, Iowa, and I'll bet the guys in the senior class don't know what to make of her, because I sure don't. I know that for a fact, but I cannot believe it. This grave, attractive young woman sitting across from me, this person who seems like someone to whom I could turn for advice, is 17 years old.
