American Beauty

Was actually only 16 years old at the time she was filmed nude for a scene in American Beauty (1999). She told TV talk show host Craig Kilborn when she appeared on his show in 2002 that her parents didn't have a problem with her doing a nude scene, despite her being under age, and they encouraged her to go ahead and do it. They agreed that her character's nude scene was so important to the development of her character that they gave their approval.

I don't think that's right... she was underage but her parents signed off on her doing the nude scene. I'm too lazy to check imdb, but that's what I remember.

Uh...Forrest Gump was a great movie.

I think the consensus opinion is that it is a very enjoyable movie to watch, but that "great" doesn't really apply.

It's #87 all-time on IMDB, right ahead of On the Waterfront. I think the general consensus is that it's great. Maybe the snobby critical consensus disagrees.

This was a good thread before IMDB rankings were introduced.

That's [censored] up. I remember very clearly reading on IMDB when I did the "Interesting IMDB Trivia" thread that Birch's head was imposed at the windowpane on another actress' body. I even remmeber the minor detail of the windowpane. I just looked it up and found nothing, it's like this very detailed memory is completely false.

I believe her parents were porn stars and adds to the believability.
