#Annabeth gish mystic pizza movie
I don't know if any of us were prepared for some of the things we had to face in the movie business. My brother and sister were older, so I was raised by four adults. "My parents called me their wise little baby," she said, after I asked her how she had developed so much self-possession at such an early age. Then she was going to fly home to Cedar Falls, where she was a member of the homecoming court for the big game on Friday night. She was on a press tour to promote " Mystic Pizza." Her next stop was Dallas. When I was 17, I would have had to ask what Cobb salad was, and then I would have given the menu a funny look and asked if they had hamburgers. She looked at the menu and decided on the Cobb salad. 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.
