This article is supported by WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers, an attempt to build a comprehensive and detailed biographical guide to actors and filmmakers on Wikipedia.

It is requested that a picture or pictures of this person be included in this article to improve its quality.

Note: Wikipedia's non-free content use policy almost never permits the use of non-free images (such as promotional photos, press photos, screenshots, book covers and similar) to merely show what a living person looks like. Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

The bio text needs to be gone through and checked for copyvio. Also, titles need to be italicized, and wikified. Dismas 15:53, 13 August 2005 (UTC)

Also, whats with her dad being half-Jewish. I mean, we all know that an out-of-ratio amount of directors and producers (and actors) are Jewish, but whats his other half? It doesn't seem like it matters, like his Jewish half is the only one people would want to know about.

Deleted the half Jewish part. I agree with what's said above.

Then, find the other half. Michael 08:02, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Agreed actually. Other half was probably not "exotic" enough to mention :) Mad Jack 09:20, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

If the "half Jewish" part was deleted, why is it still there (as of Aug 2, 2006)? 71.131.229.174 14:50, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

I reinstated it. There's no reason for it to be deleted. Michael 08:49, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

How can someone be "half Jewish", could a person be, "half Christian" or "half Muslim"?JEdward 18:27, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

"Jewish" can describe a religion and/or an ethnicity. Michael 06:44, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Why can't I add to the article saying that she bears a slight resemblance to John Kerry even though it's factual? Is it still considered vandalisim?

That Helen Hunt "bears a slight resemblance to John Kerry" is your opinion not fact. ie. it doesn't belong in an encyclopedia.Teral 22:00, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

What movie was she in where she reveals her butt crack? --69.67.229.216 03:30, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia section edits

What was the reason for removing the trivia about Cast Away ("In the movie Cast Away towards the end of the film, when Hunt runs after Tom Hanks she mistakenly shouts "Jack! Jack!", instead of the name of the character "Chuck, Chuck".)? It does seem a bit far fetched that they wouldn't re film the scene but the goof seems quite popular on google and is even mentioned on wiki (Jack Shepard). Gimboid 09:30, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Link error

The Spell does not link to the 1977 TV movie, but to an unrelated 1998 novel by British author Alan Hollinghurst. NBK1122 (talk) 20:12, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Daughter's name

How is her daughter's name actually spelled? IMDb says "Makena Lei" like this article, but Matthew Carnahan says "Måkena lei", and a newpaper article (unfortunately in the Mercury News whose archives disappear after a while) says "Makena'lei". --67.109.56.162 (talk) 20:35, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
