This section features actresses playing ‘primitive’ or ‘tribal’ characters. Generally such ‘native’ characters have been even more likely to be caricatures or stereotypical than other blackface characters.
Not all the actresses here are ‘white’ but they generally portraying an ethnicity which has a darker skin tone than their own (eg Jessica Alba, of Mexican-French-Danish descent, playing a Dayak girl in The Sleeping Dictionary). If Thandie Newton or Halle Berry were to be cast as a Mursi or Masai woman they would be included here; I believe Thandie Newton did once turn down a script called Hottentot Venus.
