One of the things that has most impressed people who have seen "Wednesday Addams" recently is the fact that Jenna Ortega, the main actress, hardly ever blinks.
The series is an adaptation of "Addams Family" and so far has received generally positive reviews from viewers.
If you've seen it, you've probably noticed that Jenna Ortega deliberately doesn't blink during the series, giving her the classic Wednesday Addams look.
Well, this was actually a deliberate decision by Tim Burton, the director of the series.
While filming and rehearsing, he liked one part of Jenna's acting without blinking so much that he decided to have her do it for the entire series.
Of course, not closing your eyes for such a long time is as tiring as it sounds.
In fact, quite a few people have criticized this decision.
"That's a lot of dedication to a role, but on the other hand it's unfair to expect so much from someone."
However, what makes the idea of ??not closing her eyes even more interesting is the fact that the actress only closes them when she feels uncomfortable, when she talks about sensitive issues, etc.
Viewers have discovered that the actress blinked about 9 times in total.
To get an idea of ??what it looks like, try not blinking for a few minutes and see how tiring it is.
