Added DiffLines:

* HollywoodHomely: Sandra Bullock is perhaps not the first person who might come to mind if the description "shy, mousy Chicago Transit employee with few close friends" comes up in conversation. The movie addresses this mainly by dressing her down in baggy, unflattering clothing to give the impression of a shy introvert who might actually [[SheCleansUpNicely clean up pretty nicely]] with a bit more confidence.

* HollywoodHomely: Lucy. She's not exactly supposed to be ugly, but the movie does a good job of making Creator/SandraBullock of all people look like a mousey, shy Chicago transportation employee.
** Which is probably closer to real shy people who might be really attractive with the right attitude and dress. Lucy is super awkward and wears awful clothes the entire time, which makes sense with someone with her character's level of self-confidence.
