Muldoons-- Unrelated Lookalikes

From: wysiwyg

Didja ever notice that some celebrities look like they could be related, but they aren't, at all? At our house we call these Muldoons-- as in, "they must be a cousins from some obscure branch of the Muldoon family..." (We picked Muldoon because it is a name we never hear used much these days, and we like it.) Anyway, these are people who could, if paired, easily play family members in a movie, but you never see them cast that way.

Keep an eye out and you'll start to spot them, too.

Tom Hanks and Juliette Lewis (the jailbait character in the remake of Cape Fear)

Ray Walston and Jose Ferrer

Clak Gable and Ernest Borgnine (really, in one scene in Gone with the Wind you could swear Gable becomes Borgnine right before your eyes)

Have fun!

General Norman Schwartzkoff and Jonathan Winters. Did you ever notice that you never see both of them at the same time?

LOL!

Ooops again, MEL Ferrer.

I think Allan Sherman is in that group, too, B&J, so the trio can do Hello Muddah Hello Faddah!

Macaulay Culkin and Nicole Kidman (before she became anorexic).

One of the Wilson sisters from Heart, and that strawberry blonde lady in "Unforgiven." The other Wilson sister, and Grace Slick, Linda Ronstadt, and maybe Wynonna Judd.

Well, then there's Sissy Spacek and Loretta Lynn, but we knew that.

Damn, it IS a music thread. (Better left here tho, I agree.)

How about crosses? If you cross Ed Asner with Danny DeVito you get Bob Hoskins, for instance.

Well.... they aren't Muldoons, but they are funny, and I suppose the thread will go wherever it will go.

Tony Blair and Mrs Tweedy (the farmer's wife in Chicken Run). Clearly one of them is a clone, though I'm not sure which. (And Cherie has a very Aardman Animations look as well...)

Don Firth recently pointed out the resemblance between SonOfABush and ALfred E Newman - and you never see them in the same place at the same time, either!

Honestly, doesn't this thread just beg some of those old cappin' lines?

I think Leo DiCaprio and Matt Damon look alike.

Also Harry Potter and my friend Andrea's husband, Aaron.
