In this film David Hemmings looked like


the young James Spader. I could imagine the latter reviving this role in his cinematic heyday.

I found Hemmings incredibly creepy and unattractive in this film.

And Vanessa Redgrave was never lovelier.

I was thinking he looks like Alex Winter, in his eyes anyway.

Had to look up Alex Winter. There is a passing resemblance but I think James Spader (when young) was a better match :)

In the midst of winter I found there was, within me, an invincible summer

maybe you're right but I never thought of James spader when watching David Hemmings in this film.

reply

I agree with the resemblance to James Spader but as I watched the film the actor I kept thinking of was Andrew McCarthy.

reply

huh, that's really interesting considering that they were both in pretty in pink.

reply

Why waste time matching him with anyone?

Simon LeBon.

I always thought he looked like James Spader but had the mannerisms of Richard Burton.

Interesting observation. I'd have to watch again to judge re-Burton mannerisms.

To me, David Hemmings in Blow-Up looked like........David Hemmings. In fact, he always looked like David Hemmings. Perhaps it was because he was David Hemmings.

Why are IMDB users compelled to post non-sensical "looks like" threads?
