In the book, I believe she is described as being 5'9+, 200+ (granted that was in the beginning of the book) that isn't the size of the actress portraying her which isn't so problematic but makes me wonder.

As for your comment below, I think Kasi Lemmons (Eve's Bayou/Talk to Me) would have been a good choice....what's sad is I can name all the black women directors I know of on both hands *SMH*
