20 Genius Actors Who Played Dumb Characters

17. Mira Sorvino

One of Mira Sorvino’s roles was that of ditzy and unsuccessful Romy in Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion. She is far from an unsuccessful ditz though. She attended Harvard University and studied abroad with CIEE in Bejing. At that time, she became fluent in Mandarin Chinese and went on to graduate from Harvard with a degree in East Asian Studies. She not only graduated from Harvard, she graduated magna cum laude.
