But that was Clea Duvall

Hmmmm I'll need to think about this one.

Does confusing Clive Owen with Treebeard count? :D

As far as purely name-based confusion goes, I was forever getting that spate of three-pronged actresses mixed up when reading about them - Sarah Jessica Parker, Penelope Ann Miller, Mary-Louise Parker, Mary Stuart Masterson, Zsa Zsa Gabor etc.

I was always 100% with my mental image of Kristin Scott Thomas, however. :love:

Oh, and sorry: most of you guys will only recognize Ms. Harring from the scene that you're watching so much frame-by-frame that it's burning a hole in your DVDs.

http://www.hotflick.net/flicks/2001_Mulholland_Dr./Thumb/2001_Mulholland_Dr_068.jpg (http://www.hotflick.net/flicks/2001_Mulholland_Dr./2001_Mulholland_Dr_068.jpg) http://www.clublez.com/movies/lesbian_movie_scenes/m/mulholland_drive/mulholland_drive_preview_71.jpg (http://www.clublez.com/movies/lesbian_movie_scenes/m/mulholland_drive/mulholland_drive_h.jpg)

Now do you know who I'm talking about? Yeah, her name is Laura, and she has a career beyond an R-rated lesbian scene in a David Lynch movie.

Sedai
07-15-06, 01:02 PM
Although I most certainly enjoy the scene you mention, I enjoy watching her vulnerabilty in the first act of the film and the shift to the cold, calculating schemer of the third act. It's tough to compete with Watt's fantastic turn in MD, but L. Harring plays off her wonderfully, and shows more range than her roles in stuff like The Punisher would lead you to believe she has. Really, i am just floored by her voluptuousness and clearly sexual mystique. Yeah, I have the hots for her. What would you recommend as some of her best wor, aside from the Lynch piece?

Speaking of Lynch, I need to go down a bottle of whiskey and watch Eraserhead...

Holden Pike
07-15-06, 01:19 PM
Oh, I'm just teasing. Mulholland Drive is far and away the best role she's had yet. I liked her in a movie I saw last night, The King (James Marsh), but she only really has a few scenes where she gets to do anything. The bit where she reaches her emotional breaking point and runs into the street in a daze is very powerful, but she just ain't in the movie all that much.

She did have a good multi-episode role on the fifth season of "The Shield", too.

http://www.sensesofcinema.com/images/19/mulholland2.jpg
"Can't you get me a job in a decent movie?"

I'm not surprised that Naomi Watts' career took off after Mulholland, but it's too bad Harring hasn't had the same kinds of opportunities yet. I mean Watts went on to do 21 Grams, I Heart Huckabees and King Kong while Harring has done Willard and The Punisher (and not even the female lead in The Punisher). The King is certainly a step back in the right direction. We'll have to see if it catches the eye of any good directors or casting agents.

Oh, well.

Sedai
07-15-06, 01:26 PM
Checking her catalog after I posted that question, I thought you might have been pulling my leg, but I will check out The King at some point. I am super broke right now, as I am living alone for the first time in ten years, so I have to be tight with the funds until I get a handle on how the bills will flow flying solo. Netflix has been cancelled and my DVD purchasing has been put on hold for a while. Once I get back on my feet (and get my head together a bit) I will give it a go. Thanks for the rec...

Can't say that I've ever confused them for another, but Hope Davis and Nina Siemaszko certainly have very simlar looks. They could play sisters, anyway.

Hope gets the more work of the two (American Splendor, Proof, About Schmidt, The Secret Lives of Dentists, Next Stop Wonderland, The Daytrippers, Arlington Road, Mumford, The Weather Man) and will wind up with an Oscar nomination one of these days. Nina, young sister of Casey Siemaszko (Biloxi Blues, Young Guns, Breaking In), mostly toils in series television in supporting and guest starring roles.

HOW did I just read through three pages of this thread and not see anyone list the "famous" confusion that even the two actors themselves joke about all the time:

Laurence Fishburne and Samuel L. Jackson?

Then again, I think it doesn't happen as much nowadays with Jackson so much on the rise and Fishburne hardly seen at all ... but I used to confuse these two guys back in the day when they were both a lot less famous and doing smaller roles.

I'm just shocked that Jackson even got mentioned ... but not compared to Fishburne.

Oh, and Yoda? The Crudup/Schaech thing: I do believe that your lowly mother was the one who pointed out to you with 100% certainty in her voice that you were wrong and it wasn't Crudup in That Thing You Do!

We watched The Covenant last night. I kept mixing up the two leads, Steven Strait (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1711829/) who played Caleb Danvers and Sebastian Stan (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1659221/) who played Chase Collins.

Note to casting directors of shadowy action movies, if I'm constantly wondering, now which one is down, "the good guy" or "the bad guy" during the action, that's not good.

Also when naming characters if you cast two guys that look somewhat alike after hair and makeup, you might want to make their character's names dissimulator. I think that might help a bit.

I have to disagree. I can't stand Griffith. It blows my mind all the hot men she has done and / or married. Did they put a paper bag over her face or what. Plus I hate her voice.

Meg Ryan OTOH is hot IMO. Catch her full frontal nudity in the movie In The Cut. It's not a great movie except for the sex scenes.

First of all, it's spelled Melanie Griffith. Second of all, she's had such an ever-increasing amount of plastic surgery in the past fifteen years or so, I don't think she looks much like anybody anymore...especially Melanie Griffith.

Sadly poor Meg Ryan got all insecure or something and now she, too, has started a barrage of procedures that just make her look damn weird...and no longer like herself. If it's just the post-op offness that you see as similar in the two, OK, I guess, but I don't think at any stage before or after they started slicing and dicing their faces have they ever looked even a little bit similar. DEFINITELY not before. I don't know how you can watch Working Girl or Something Wild back-to-back with When Harry Met Sally... or Innerspace and be confused on which actress is which.

A few actors who were momentarily hot in the '80s and early '90s who I used to forget which was which were Michael Nouri, John Shea and Michael Ontkean. But I think it was laregly because they were just kind of non-descript looking guys with dark hair.

22452

As they've aged they became very distinct in my mind, but back when all three were first on the scene they were completely interchangeable in my mind's eye.

Michael Nouri got his break when Flashdance (1983) became such a surprise hit, though he had been acting for years. But that success didn't translate into much, though he did get to star in one Sci-Fi cult classic in The Hidden (1987). These days he's pretty much exclusively a TV guest star and he has a recurring role on "The OC". Golly.

John Shea's big break was in Costa-Gravas' terrific Missing (1982) with Jack Lemmon and Sissy Spacek. He starred as RFK in the "Kennedy" TV mini-series in 1983. His career kind of petered out after that hot start, and it was a mostly forgettable line of TV movies and guest appearances. I really liked the TV show he starred in for CBS in 1990, "WIOU" that hoped to be a sort of weekly cross between Broadcast News and Network for the "L.A. Law" set. But it was cancelled after only one season. He did crop up as Lex Luthor to Dean Cain's Superman on "Lois & Clark" and he'll still show up as a guest star here and there, but safe to say the promise of Missing was never delivered.

Michael Ontkean was in the '70s cop show "The Rookies" for a couple of years and co-starred with Paul Newman in the crass hockey comedy Slap Shot (1977), but then he pretty much disappeared from anything of quality for a dozen years or so. He reemerged in 1990 as Sheriff Harry S. Truman patroling David Lynch's "Twin Peaks", but right after that momentary blip of fame he disappeared again, relegated to TV movies of the week. He barely works at all these days.


They all kinda had the same look and dark hair back then, two of them worked with Kyle MacLachlan, two of them are named Michael, they all spent lots of time on various short-lived TV shows and cropping up as guest stars every damn place on the dial...eh. I'm sure when I saw the first episode of "Twin Peaks" I thought to myself, 'Hey, the Sheriff and MacLachlan are teaming up again like they did in The Hidden. I wonder if this means Jennifer Beals will be along shortly from his Flashdance days?'

You can't mistake them anymore, as Nouri has let his hair grow white and Ontkean doesn't show up anywhere, but back in like 1988 if you had shown me their three mug shots and had me place them at the scene of a crime, I would have probably gotten an innocent man thrown in the slammer or told the pigs to round up these triplets. Now they trade time as one-shot murderers and creeps on the various "Law & Order" franchises.

Thanks, Holden, I'll correct the spelling. That's so kind of you to point it out.

However, Melanie bugs me visually and vocally. She always has. Ever since the first movie I saw her in, which I believe was Working Girl.

Meg, OTOH, looked good to me from the first time I saw her. I believe that was on a soap. She looked sweet and fresh.

When she starred in the movie, In The Cut, there was no discernible plastic surgery. That was one reason why I liked it. She was confident enough about her body, at that age, to show it on screen. I was quite surprised. I liked her for that.

Happily, I've not seen either since their plastic surgery exploits. I think the plastic surgery trend is really sad. I've seen beautiful women, like Hunter Tylo; completely ruin their looks with that.

From the pictures you posted, I still think Meg looks better by far. I don't think they look very much alike. I mean apart from being female and having, short, messy, bleached blond hair.

I remember Michael Nouri and Michael Ontkean. I liked Nouri the best. I don't remember the other fellow.

"Hi, I used to be Meg Ryan. I was narrowly beat out as the new Joker by Heath Ledger."


Believe me, I'm all for Meg and most other women taking off their clothes, and I have no idea if Ms. Ryan has yet started surgery on anything other than her face (the only other nude scene she did before In the Cut was in The Doors, and you didn't get to see much other than a nipple then so it's hard to judge). She certainly hasn't done any drastic Cher-like major reconstruction of her body. I think she should be naked in every movie. You bet. But it's sad that she felt compelled to start changing her face when she hit forty, she split up with Dennis Quaid, and started dating Russel Crowe.

Age gracefully and naturally, ladies. That's my advice.

About plastic surgery, I would not feel good about myself if my face didn't work. Of course I'm an anti invasive medical procedures kind of girl anyway. I can't imagine going under the knife at all, much less for iffy results.

I'm absolutely paranoid about anesthesia. I can just imagine my husband having to explain to the kids how mommy died because she was vain and wanted to look better.

I am the worst person on earth when it comes to mistaking celebrities with other celebrities. I even do it, when the two celebrities don't look alike. Here are the sets of celebs I mix up, constantly.

Helen Hunt & Leelee Sobieski

Stanley Kubrick & Salmon Rushdie

Orlando Bloom & Heath Ledger

Steven Tyler & Mick Jagger

David Arquette & Luke Wilson

Kiera Knightley & Rachel Weisz

Ashley Judd & Katherine Heigl (If I wasn't so familiar with Angelina Jolie I would mix up Angelina & Katherine as well.)

Margot Kidder & Helena Christensen

Laura Linney & Maura Tierney

Bill Pullman & Bill Paxton (It isn't only the names, they look like brothers.)

Here is the one I do most commonly, which lead to one of the most embarrassing moments of my life.

Elias Koteas & Christopher Meloni

I fan huge fans of both, I have pretty much every film or show they have worked on in my DVD collection. Never the less, I don't know if it is dyslexia, too many bong hits in college, or maybe I was deprived of oxygen when I was an infant but everytime...

The first time I was in L.A. a little over five years ago I see, Elias at the Karma Coffeehouse. I have only ever seen a very few celebrities & no one A-list outside of my work, but if I see they are having lunch with someone I don't bother them, but he was eating alone. So I stood up & quietly made my way over him & said,"Excuse me, but I am a big fan.." He looked up & nodded his head in a placating gesture of acknowledgement (Which is usually code for 'Go bother someone else.') then he added a "thank you." Now looking back, I should have taken the hint, but I was abit star struck, so I continued by saying "You were phenomenal 'Gardens of Stone' The only reason to watch 'Full Moon in Blue Water' Peter Masterson didn't deserve to have a actor of your caliber in 'Blood Red' I can't think of another actor that could bring artistic integrity that you did as, Casey Jones in 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' (That is no exaggeration, the TMNT line is an exact quote. lol) & you are the pivital reason why 'Fallen' is probably my favorite movie I have ever seen etc.."

I could see in his eyes that he realized I wasn't some jerk off fan, trying to get next to a Hollywood actor so he invited me to take a seat. We talked almost 20 or 30 minutes, I told him I had just graduated SCAD Cinema & the conversation was great. He even took down my name, the number to my friend 'Jared' who was letting me sleep on the couch til I got on my feet.

Anyways, we both stood to leave, we shook hands, then he said,"Tim, it was an honor to meet you & I have a feeling we will be working together some time in the near future." I was in awe, to the point where I was trembling and I responded by saying "M-m-mr. Meloni, this has been...." You should have seen the look on his face, it went from the bright expression everyone gets when they meet someone new & interesting to Mansonesque look of murderous rage.

The worst part was, I didn't realize I had called him Mr. Meloni instead of Mr. Koteas until ten minutes after he left. So I am sure you can guess if I ever got that callback..

The guy Timothy Olyphant (Go, The Safety of Objects) really looks like - at least when he's not in his "Deadwood" attire and goatee - is the star of the ABC dramadey "What About Brian" and "7th Heaven" alum, Barry Watson. The first time I saw a commercial for "What About Brian" last year I wondered how and why David Milch let Olyphant work his schedule around starring in a whole other series.

I don't neccessarily confuse them, but fitting in with the "similar appearance" theme. I'm probably behind the curve on this one, but watching A Christmas Story over the weekend I noticed that Scott Farkus appears to be a possible inspiration for Sid from Toy Story.
