Perfect choice to play George Sanders
If they ever make a biopic about the actor George Sanders I think Matthew would be ideal to play him. I think he looks quite a bit like him.
Go to bed Frank or this is going to get ugly .

I have always thought that he looked quite a bit like Sanders, and I think he could pull off the voice as well. That would be an interesting film!
shareHahahaha, not sure anyone knows who George Sanders was anymore, but I think I recall him being called the penultimate heel or something. You're right ... this guy looks just like him.
Some Sanders' quotes:
* A woman, a dog and a walnut tree, the more you beat them, the better they be.
* I never really thought I'd make the grade. And let's face it, I haven't.
* [on being asked how he felt about his divorce from Zsa Zsa Gabor] Like a squeezed lemon.
* I was beastly but never coarse. A high-class sort of heel.
A very sad guy ... Sanders suffered from dementia, worsened by waning health, and visibly teetered in his last films, owing to a loss of balance. According to Aherne's biography, he also had a minor stroke. Sanders could not bear the prospect of losing his health or needing help to carry out everyday tasks and became deeply depressed.
At about this time he found that he could no longer play his grand piano, so he dragged it outside and smashed it with an axe. His last girlfriend persuaded him to sell his beloved house in Majorca, Spain, which he later bitterly regretted. From then on he drifted.
On 23 April 1972, Sanders checked into a hotel in Castelldefels, a coastal town near Barcelona. He died of a cardiac arrest two days later, after swallowing the contents of five bottles of the barbiturate Nembutal.[41][42] He left behind three suicide notes, one of which read:
Dear World, I am leaving because I am bored. I feel I have lived long enough. I am leaving you with your worries in this sweet cesspool. Good luck.
