I loved her in that! I loved the movie too. Got a copy of Peter Pan and read it to my son that year over Christmas.

(off topic but I thought there were many layers to that movie)

She wasn't so bad in Jack & Bobby (incidentally, that was Bradley Cooper's breakout role).

She really dragged down Mad Men though. Luckily everything else about that show is excellent, so she couldn't destroy it. Has she been in anything else?

Yes. There are 56,000 British actors who could have done a better job than Andi. You know all the Brits made fun of her throughout the filming.

Isn't the whole point of the character that she's American?

He’s extremely talented and there’s no such thing as rapey looking.
