Angela Kinsey Shares What Her Character From The Office Would Do In Tall Girl 2

Speaking about her character Helaine Kreyman in "Tall Girl," Angela Kinsey said she appreciated seeing the growth in her from the first to the second movie. "I felt like, in the first movie, I felt like Helaine sometimes just didn't get it. She was caught up in herself and reliving her glory days, her pageant years. But I felt like in 'Tall Girl 2,' she really was there when her daughter needed her the most. And I was happy for that," the actress said.

However, while Helaine's heart was in the right place, Kinsey wasn't always sure about her execution, particularly when it came to the dating advice she gave Jodi in the movie. "The relationship advice was not great," Kinsey said. "I mean, I feel like Helaine is that girlfriend that tells you to play games. And you're like, 'Why don't you just be honest and just be in the moment and don't play games?'"

However, Kinsey believes Helaine is at least more open-minded than her character Angela Martin from "The Office" would have been. When asked how she thought Martin would have advised Jodi on her dating life, Kinsey laughed and said that her character would have said, "You're not dating, period. There are no boys because you're not dating."
