Sherriff of Nottingham?
Yes. Now we can add Matthew "Worst Spy Ever" McFadyen to that rank, and I STILL can't see it.
ETA: George C. Scott and William Hurt
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Because books.
Heathcliff, innit?
eta: nope. Neebbermind.
Yes, it was! Wasn't it? Fiennes played Heathcliff in the 1992 film.

Keira Knightley is not a Natalie Portman lookalike. Keira has some good angles. Natalie is a classic and has few bad ones. And no funny dental issues.

No, wait a minute. Armitage actually played Guy of Gisbourne, not the sheriff. Sheriff was played by an older guy. My bad.
Scrooge?
Heh. THAT would been a better casting choice for both of them than the role in question.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I can't see that link from here. What's it about?
(Mostly I think Keira's funny looking and Natalie Portman incredibly beautiful. They're both brunettes, but it stops there for me without artificial means)

Well, Scott was definitely Scrooge and I was thinking Hurt was maybe Scrooge in the Muppet Christmas Carol or something like that.

It's all about Kiera Knightley's Star Wars TPM character (the decoy for NP's character). With pictures.

I dunno. When I image google them it's obvious a lot of people think they look alike, but I just can't get past the dentition.

I think KK looks a lot less like NP now than she did when TPM was made.
