Is it me or did you notice that the little girl playing Lily as a child in Severus' memories, does not have blue/green eyes ? Looked like she had brown eyes. Unless I am wrong ? Any idea ?
Yea I noticed that too! I was kind of disappointed that they slipped out on such an important detail....Little Lily did have brown eyes...The most contradicting detail was when the older Lily with infant Harry who showed up later in Snape's memories had blue-green eyes.

Yes, glad to read that's not me only lol - yes, good thing that adult Lily had the correct eye color.
The little Lily (haha!) did, but grown up Lily doesn't.

Yes, fortunately ! I saw the movie twice, in English on last Wed., and in French no later than today, and I did notice that the little girl had no blue/green eyes. Above all there are several closeups on little Lily and it bugged me.
Yeah. I can understand not photoshopping Dan's eyes to be green ('cuz that would take a lot of time), but little Lily wasn't shown much. I don't think it would have been too big a hassle to photoshop them to match Dan and Geraldine's eyes.
yes i've noticed that. and it was silly that snape said to harry: you have your mothers eyes. that was sad but k..i mean the young lily had brown eyes and harry has blue eyes. oh,now i can see the similarity. xD
Yeah,I noticed that too I don't know why they don't just slap in some contacts or cgi it.

Maybe they did try those options, but they just didn't work or look right. After all is said and done, I think this young girl was chosen because she looked the most like Geraldine.
Yeah I saw that. I really don't know why they were so careless with that detail.

Yes, they could have cast another little girl. Even a girl with another hair color, hair can be dyed after all (see the Phelps twins that play fred figglehorn and George - they are not redheads in real life).
Does anyone get why Lily as a little girl has bright red hair in the movie, too? I know it was described as somewhat red but that red was extremely bright red..
I noticed this as well and it really bugged me. Why couldn't have the actress worn blue green contact lenses or they cast a different actress with the correct coloured eyes. Her eyes were her most important feature.
And I'm pretty sure young Severus had blue eyes but Alan's are browny black. Please someone correct me on this if I am wrong.
Yes I did. Just after seeing it and hearing Snape say you have your mother's eyes it made me giggle. That was not a good place to laugh in the movie theater.
I think the girl who played "little Lily" was perfect apart from her eyes rahhhh really disappointed that she didn't have blue/green eyes it just takes the whole "you have your mother's eye's" out of context cos its not true.
The boy who played "little Severus" was so adorable and perfectly cast such a cutie.
