A Study in Facial Design

How is it that two people can have so many of the same features, and yet one is gorgeous and the other one is not quite? What's it like for a normal person with a really good-looking sibling?

I'm not really concerned about every-day folk, most people don't make a living with their face, I'm thinking about actors. This question first poppped into my head when I heard that Benicio Del Toro had a brother. A brother, huh? There are TWO of them out there? Wow! Then I saw Benicio's brother on an episode of Inside the Actor's Studio. Honestly, there is nothing wrong with the man's appearance, but when you're expecting one thing and you get something else, it can be a bit of a shock.

The experience reminded me of Randy Quaid and Dennis Quaid. They look quite similar, but there is just something a little different about them.

Then there is Beau Bridges and Jeff Bridges. I think the family resemblance is easy to see, but one of these things is not as yummy as the other...

Sean Penn and his adorable departed brother Chris Penn kind of look alike, but then again, they kind of don't.

"So, youre Kevin Dillon huh? Can I have Matt's phone number?"

Personally, I would have trouble choosing between the Wilson brothers, but what if you threw Steve Carell into the mix? Doesn't he sort of resemble Luke? But I don't know anyone who considers Steve Carell to be a sex symbol.

I heard that Jason Isaacs has some brothers, but after the Benicio Del Toro Brother Letdown, I just didn't go there. Instead, I thought I would point out how the late and very talented Bob Peck looks like he could be Jason's brother, but one is somehow more attractive than the other.

While we're on the subject of Jurassic Park Stars Who Resemble Other Actors, let's do Sam Neill and Hugo Weaving. This may be the wrong pair to point out, because I think they are both hotties.

Or how about Hugo Weaving and this guy pictured here with him...oh...nevermind.
