Poor Man's Winona Ryder?


This is the only film I've seen Keeley Hawes in and my impression of her is that she's essentially the poor man's Winona Ryder. Her looks and acting in this piece certainly bear some similarities, albeit pale and limp ones. Does she maintain this poor parallel in every film, or does she have some substance of her own as an actress?

Personaly, I think she is a very fine actress.I do not see any resembalnce ,Miss Hawes is far more refined looking.

I agree with Hammerfanatic 46, and I would even go so far as to say that Winona Ryder is a poor man's Keeley Hawes. Exhibit A: Winona's laughably bad performance in "Bram Stoker's Dracula."

Keeley was great in this and in "Our Mutual Friend."
