Robert Graves

A well chosen anthology is a complete dispensary of medicine for the more common mental disorders, and may be used as much for prevention as cure.

Ian McKellen would be stellar playing this guy. Look at the look in his eyes!

Then again, Bowie playing Tesla struck real live sparks, and the resemblance, as seen a bit further up, isn't much. So I'm not saying actors should be cast based on looking like the person, but sometimes you see someone and just go: yeah!

My husband plays this game. Whenever we are watching a movie or a tv show (or even sometimes just passing someone on the street) where he announces "Isn't that so-and-so" whenever a person bears some resemblance to someone else. I think were he to pass Robert Graves on the street he would call out Ian McKellen. So, spot on. :-)

PS - Oh and apparently Sylvester Stallone lives in our neighborhood judging by the many times the husband has asked, "Isn't that Sylvester Stallone?" Good times.
