Character - Margot

 We asked Kathy to be out actress for Margot because we thought her pale skin and long blonde hair would be nice contrast to the more darker colouring of out other female character Eva. She also lives close to our filming locations so it would be convenient for everyone in the group.

Profile: Margot is an anti-social, independant teenager who feels removed from what she considers normal life. She is very distant towards her mother, who she lives with, and has no close personal relationships with anyone else. However, she is constantly fascinated with some people and spends most of her time observing everyday life, while herself feeling she has become an outcast from it. These inclinations will lead to her obsession with Eva and their destructive, distorted relationship.  


                                                      Character Appearance + Personality:



 We bassed the appearance of Margot on Characters like the sisters from theVirgin Suicides, especially Kirsten Dunst, and other actresses such as Amanda Seyfried and Mia Wasikowska,with pale skin, long blonde hair and blue eyes. We thought this would give her character the impression of being innocent and easy to influence, as these features are commonly assosiated with that type of character.


Her personality was also inspired by
the sisters in the Virgin Suicides, as they are at first innocent but are eventually influenced to commit suicide together. Another character that se could identify with is Nina from Black Swan, as she is also influenced and eventually driven mad due to the presence of another character in the film.
