I watched my new Sin City DVD last night with some friends, and did a double take in the scene that shows the mounted heads on the wall at the farm. “Wait, was that Sarah Michelle Gellar?!” We backed up a bit, and sure enough, the rightmost one is the mounted head of Buffy. She’s not listed in the [full credits list on IMDB](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0401792/fullcredits), and, though the question has been asked of [Google Answers](http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=541091), no answer is yet forthcoming. Anyone recognize any of the other heads? ---

The question on Google Answers expired unanswered, probably because of the low price. Few GA Researchers are willing to take on a project like this in order to earn $1.50 (the Researcher’s share of a $2.00 fee). ---

Are you suggesting I should bribe dopers to answer this? ---

I checked and I don’t think it is Sarah Michelle Gellar, though it looks somewhat like her. In the close shot(25:31 on my DVD), it doesn’t look exactly like her, and we can see the “rose tattoo” girl next to her. One second later(25:32), in the wide shot, we can still see the rose tatto girl and it does look rather like Buffy. I think the close shot makes it clear it is not her, however. ---

> [@iamthewalrus(:3=](#): > > Are you suggesting I should bribe dopers to answer this? Heh. No, but if Dopers answer wrongly, they don’t suffer any penalty. If a Google Answers Researcher’s answer is rejected by the customer, the GAR’s answer profile reflects this. Too many refunds, and we lose our answering privileges. As far as I know, Dopers are permitted an unlimited number of wild-ass guesses without being excommunicated. 😛 ---

I’ve got the dvd in my computer right now so I checked the scene. I’d say I’m about 95% sure its not SMG. Grab a pic of her from google and check again. There some similarities but I highly doubt its her. ---

I watched it again, and I think you’re right. It’s not Sarah Michelle Gellar. I watched the other scenes with the girls from old town, hoping that I’d see a match, but I didn’t see any of them there, either.
