Donna... Zero resemblance


What the *beep*? They casted a mildly attractive girl to play the role of a really unatractive girl. What there were no unatractive girls that could have played Donna?

Now we're complaining about the casting choice of a supporting character?

I never laid eyes on a picture of the actual Donna Ludvig(sp?)at that age,so I can't compare the two.However,since you look at it that way,Lou Diamond Phillips wasn't a dead ringer of Ritchie Valens either.

Lou looked much more like Ritchie than Danielle looked like Donna.

C'mon man! Go complain on a crappy film's board.

It was a movie, not a documentary.

Ritchie cared about Donna. But I think he really loved his sister-in-law Rosie.
