Did you guys know the person who played Zelda was a guy? I was looking around on IMBd and found Zelda, so I clicked the actors name and found out he was only in 1 other movie, then looked at the name to see Andrew..I thought..thats an odd name for a girl xD all the while I'm watching the special features and right around the same time they mentioned how Zelda was a boy...I was just curious how many people knew this?

I've never seen the actors name to know it is a guy, but watching the scenes in the movie I could spot this straight off.
Sometimes a gal just knows these thangs!

I found that out on Wikipedia. Apparently the story was that they couldn't find a woman that skinny to fit the role, so they just hired a guy.

I'm still traumatized over the fact that Lassie was a boy...

I read it some years ago. That explains the masculine facial features.

I can honestly say I really didn't look that closely at Zelda because I was so creeped out. Zelda is one image that stays with me from that movie!

Then it was a job well done!

interesting...i never knew that...

not surprising...
I agree with the general consensus: Zelda was far too creepy to take time to notice masculine features. Honestly, her visage was asexual in its ghastliness. I think that's what the casters and makeup artists were going for, anyway.
