My Current Actor Obsession

Posted by Kelly



Tina Majorino.

Tina first came into my consciousness as the cute little girl in
1994's Corrina, Corrina.

Since then, she graduated high school at the age of 15, became a
trained opera singer, earned her black belt in martial arts and went
on to star in one of the biggest cult films of the decade (Napoleon
Dynamite).

But it wasn't until her turn as blue-haired Mac (Cindy "Mac"
Mackenzie aka Veronica Mars' Q) that Tina Majorino became a My TV
favourite.

Now, as I finally watch season 3 of Big Love, she remains at the top
of the "unsung supporting actress" list. Throughout the series,
Tina's role as Heather, a conservative Mormon struggling to look past
her own beliefs to be friends with the daughter of polygamists, Sarah
(played by the incomparable Amanda Seyfried, another Veronica Mars
alum), was a key part of what made Big Love such a multi-faceted
show. Heather's conflict with Sarah coming to a head in season 3 only
served to showcase Tina Majorino's underrated skill all the more
unmistakably.

A child star who turned out sane, complete with a host of hidden
talents, a good head on her shoulders and impeccable taste in TV
roles, Tina Majorino is one in a million.

Simply put, the girl is really cool.
