I'd like to add one actor to the list - Tom Hardy as Britain's most infamous prisoner Charles Bronson in Bronson (2008). Charles-Br...fae9a0.jpg

I noticed in so many cases (not all of them of course, Marilyn Monroe for example is not such a case) the actors have a kinda sharper face line, while the actual historical people they represent look slightly rounder and softer.

I always find it interesting that only the actresses get commented on how "pretty" they are if they don't look enough like the people they portray. I'll never understand.

Kathy Bates as the unsinkable Molly Brown (Titanic) is absolutely spot on imo. Also Vanessa Kirby as Princess Margaret in The Crown

i dont see it, in most of these either too young to play the role or too old.

Johnny Depp as Dillinger in Public Enemies; Johnny Depp as Ed Wood in Ed Wood; John Lithgow as Churchill in The Crown; Kevin Costner as Eliot Ness in the Untouchables; Robert Denero as Al Capone in the Untouchables

#56. pollock not pollack

Great list of movies to see again

A little Hollywood magic can turn almost anyone in to anyone, but these actors are the doppelgangers of iconic people that left a legacy behind themselves.

Amalia.jpg Sandra Barata Belo as Amália Rodrigues in Amália (2008) Barata portrays legendary Portuguese fado singer Amália Rodrigues; songs used in the film are recordings of Amália.

Eric Bana as Mark "Chopper" Read in 'Chopper'.

so much similarity in between Steve jobs.
