striking resemblance


I noticed that Tom Drake bears a striking resemblance to a younger Liam Neeson in this picture! And Dean Stockwell has got to be the cutest child male actor ever discovered!

I noticed the same thing! I thought he looked so much like Neeson...I was going to say something to my husband but I didn't. I guess I'm not the only one who thought that, obviously!

I didn't catch any resemblance to Liam Neeson but I did mistake him for John Mills. I later realized I had seen him in Meet me in St. Louis.

In regards to Dean Stockwell, I agree. He was a cute kid and a good actor even at that young age. The thing I always noticed about him, what set him apart, was the fact he didn't just play cute kid roles. His stuff had substance. Even though he was a child, his characters had a certain maturity about them and he pulled it off well.

Unlike a lot of child actors he managed to stay in the industry and continued to be successful. I'm amazed he's still working, I believe, to this day.

Yes, and later he would grow up to be that creepy Ben in Blue Velvet...
