* The book and movie portray the characters differently: The book provides more details about the characters' appearances, while the movie relies heavily on the actors' physical traits.
* We don't have a clear description of Buttercup's parents: The book doesn't go into great detail about their appearance, and the movie focuses more on their personalities and interactions.
However, we can make some inferences:
* Age: Obviously, Buttercup's parents are older than her, which would be reflected in their appearance.
* Possible shared traits: It's possible that Buttercup inherited certain physical features from her parents, like hair or eye color, but we don't have specific information to confirm this.
* The movie: In the movie, Buttercup is played by Robin Wright, who has a very distinct look. Her parents are played by Christopher Guest and Mandy Patinkin, who both have very different physical characteristics than Wright.
In conclusion, without a more detailed description of Buttercup's parents, we can only speculate about their physical differences. The focus of the story is on their relationships and the journey of the characters, not their detailed physical appearances.
