The young girl you see on the left picture holding a monkey is famous actress Thora Birch, who introduced herself to the world in the 1988 film Purple People Eater. Since then, Birch has been able to strengthen her acting portfolio, and during the ’90s, she appeared in numerous films like All I Want For Christmas and Hocus Pocus. However, it was her role in American Beauty, back in 1999, that earned her a spot in Hollywood’s most acclaimed young actors.
