* TypeCasting: Emma Watson's role as Meg shares a few parallels with her role as Pauline in ''Literature/BalletShoes''; both are the eldest of a group of sisters, also the most feminine and considered the beauty of the family. Both get a scene where they angst over a new dress for a party, and both have a passion for acting. The difference is that Meg gives up acting to get married and start a family, while Pauline pursues a film career in Los Angeles.
