Some are quite good, some are nothing like, most are in between.
There used to be an old geezer who lived near me who bore a marked resemblance to the elderly Einstein - a resemblance he was obviously aware of and cultivated, because he had the same moustache and unruly hair. I wonder if he did lookalike work as well.
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.
