'''Matt, Watermelon Guy:''' No, it's not really brown. Oh, he's tall.
'''Stoner Guy:''' Yeah, he's kinda kinda tall. Sorta tall. And he's like always wearing like t-shirts.
'''Amanda Becket:''' So, he's sort of tall?

* Jean-Baptiste Grenouille from ''[[Perfume]]'' possesses a superhuman sense of smell and eventually becomes a mass murderer. However, he has no scent of his own, causing people to instinctively treat him as a cipher beneath their notice. Even a watchdog ignores him. This is part of his motivation to create the perfect scent.
* The assassin Vincent in ''[[Collateral]]'' consciously invokes this trope, making himself nondescript by coupling his gray hair with clothing entirely of gray. Supposedly, as training, the director even had Tom Cruise deliver a package in a public place with nobody recognizing him.
* There's a creepy, possibly alien guy in horror movie ''[[The Forgotten (film)|The Forgotten]]'' with rather short brown hair, brown eyes, a blank, ordinary face... and he's [[Immune to Bullets]].
