This is an issue that keeps popping up every now and then. Except for documentaries, all cinema is illusion, so if the illusion of an actress being underage is convincing enough, I'm for it. :thumbsup

There have been many instances of this. Many of the girls in the David Hamilton films and the the Schulmadchen series were in their twenties. Also, like loverboy has pointed out, this is a good way for controversial films to actually get made and released.

My first look at Kate Beckinsale was in a movie called Anna Lee - Headcase (1993) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0463866/ in which she played a sexually abused 14 year old. Stunning, even though she was about 20 at the time.

Francesca Neri was 36 when Edades de Lulú, Las (1990) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099484/ was released. I loved her portrayal of an innocent teen at the beginning of the film. :thumbsup

Keri Lynn Pratt http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005325/bio actually has this in her resume: Played a 17-year-old in an episode of the sitcom "Stacked" (2005), but she was actually 27 at the time. Her boyfriend/ husband must be the luckiest paedophile in the USA. :drool Saw her in an episode of House M. D. :clap

[EDIT] How about moving my releases in the general section, Gracie's Choice and Cat Girl Kiki, to the respective release sections? :dance

A body double is used for Bishil in some scenes.

So for this they used a body double or what? :O

A more daunting problem was casting the leading role: a 13-year-old who is molested by her adult next-door neighbor.

“The big worry was who’s going to play Jasira, because it’s not like there’s a huge recognizable talent pool of Eastern-looking actresses who are 18 but can play 13,” he said. Summer Bishil, who got the role, turned 18 just before shooting began last September.

“The bond company insisted that the actors playing Jasira and [her boyfriend] Thomas be 18, or they wouldn’t do it,” he said. [Chase Ellison, a child actor who plays her chief tormentor, Zack, appeared four years ago in “Mysterious Skin,” which used careful editing rather than older actors to suggest child molestation. A body double is used for Bishil in some scenes.]

“What was hard was that no studio actually wanted to make this movie, and it had to be completely independently financed,” he said.
