Or just a current Hollywood actress that stands 5'4" or so but weighs 90 pounds.
Joyce: And what did you do tonight? Dawn: Irritated Giles. I'm beginning to get why Buffy likes it so much.

Biopics?
Well. Since Robin Williams doesn't remotely resemble Patch Adams (who is a) cranktastic! and b) not particularly funny, but an inspiration none the less), I'd have to go with Sissy Spacek as The Coalminer's Daughter. Broke my heart.
Low-retta Lynn. There is a character.
While not a biopic, I loved Val Kilmer as Doc Holliday.

I'm not much of a fan of biopics as a rule, but John Hurt in The Naked Civil Servant and Eric Bana in Chopper are both pretty fabulous.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Bana is amazing in Chopper.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
How about Robert Downey Jr. in Chaplin ?

Take your fingers off it, don't you dare touch it, you know it don't belong to you, to you...
According to the Vancouver Sun, some fellow named Josh Whedon is getting involved with the Wonder Woman movie. And you can tell you're an overly obsessed Buffista when find yourself yelling "it's Joss!" Or is Josh his evil twin?
Good biopics: My Left Foot, the one where Ewan MacGregor's James Joyce (Nora I think it's called)...I'll think of others.

Because Landau's Lugosi performance may be the best I've ever seen by a male actor.
Nodding in complete agreement with Matt over this one.

I have a plan.
Since Robin Williams doesn't remotely resemble Patch Adams
How about what's his name; Adrian Cronour (or however you pronounce it). Good Morning Vietnam.
And yeah, Landau is gawdlike.

Angela Bassett as Tina Turner and Lawrence Fishburne as Ike Turner. Neither of them looked too much like the RL person, but they just blew me away by their performances.
For one who looked a lot like the RL person and still gave a great performance, Gary Busey as Buddy Holly was wonderful.
