I was watching _Goodfellas_ last night and it struck me that [Ray Liotta](http://www.wildsound-filmmaking-feedback-events.com/images/goodfellas_ray_liotta.jpg) looked an awful lot like [Bryan Ferry](http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_7s9sekKob0E/TMjLeicBmmI/AAAAAAAAGXo/4aB5pLMj0TE/s1600/Bryan-Ferry.jpg). ---

ETA: [This guy](http://media.thestar.topscms.com/images/8a/08/c43d71f94570ade40dcc68e3cb77.jpeg). Other than the squinty eyes, I don’t think they look that much a like though. The Grey’s Anatomy guy seems better looking. But will all the stylized lighting on magazine covers, I forget who’s who. This guy is on more workout mags. ---

I can’t find pictures that capture it, so I’m probably hallucinating and bizarre, but when “Dead Poets’ Society” came out, I thought Robert Sean Leonard was Geena Davis’s brother or something. ---
