In "Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld, the operation refers to a surgical procedure that transforms the main characters from "Uglies" into "Pretties." This procedure alters their physical appearance to conform to societal standards of beauty, making them more attractive. Along with the physical changes, the operation also affects their mental state, often dulling their emotions and critical thinking, which reinforces societal norms and expectations. The transformation symbolizes the pressure to conform and the loss of individuality.

Emily Browning is too old. She's 23 and by the time they start filming she'll be about 24 or 25. Tally's supposed to be 16. But I guess that movie stars generally look a few years younger than they actually are... So maybe she'll work.
Operation Wooden Leg happened in 1985.
Dr. Cable is a leading figure in the government of the city where the novel "Uglies" is set. She works for the Special Circumstances unit and is a strong proponent of the current system of turning young people into "Pretties" through surgery and mind manipulation.

There are four books only-- Uglies, Pretties, Specials, Extras.
well, its really complicated, but the short version: its about a city in the future where people get a operation when they're 16 that make them really beautiful. these are the pretties, and the uglies are people who haven't gotten the operation yet. in the story there's a girl named Tally Youngblood (she's the main character) and she mets Shane, and they become best friends. but Shane runs away because she doesn't want to get the operation. then the 'specials' come and tell Tally that she can't get the operation until she tells them where Shane is. so she go to find Shane. i won't tell you any more, and i know that that wasn't really short, but you have you know that much.
