Ben Kingsley
« on: February 13, 2013, 02:05:31 PM »
I was looking up old posts and was a bit surprised at not finding any mention of Sir Kingsley... great actor and he rocks the sly look like a natural. Beside he's pretty much the only celeb I've ever been told I look like - having a big nose and funny ears has its upsides too apparently :D



And here's one of his finest characters IMO, unhinged cockney gangster Don Logan from the movie Sexy Beast (a little forgotten classic in its own right, by the way)

Yes indeed , I guess I haven't seen him around lately but he is a very talented actor.  And always sported the SLY look very well.   You do look alot like him! 

That is cool !  He must be Italian also.   ;) O0 8)  Thanks for sharing !

Ahah or maybe I'm British? :D it's funny though, I get the "you look like a (young) Ben Kingsley" remark so often at work that I've even begun doing Don Logan's trademark "NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!" routine whenever something goes wrong... though I usually drop the final line if there are clients around ;)
