Ladies Who Look Like Anna Friel
Pushing Daisies would have to the very first time I learned who Anna Friel is. I’ve never seen her movie, Goal! and it had been quite popular among my friends. Since I’m not from the UK, I wasn’t familiar with Brookside, the drama series where she became a household name in Europe.When I first saw the previews of the show last year, I thought that the program starred Zooey Deschanel; she even sounded and moved like her. And this made me look forward to the show more because I like Zooey Deschanel.
I’m quite sure I’m not the only one who sees the resemblance between Anna and Zooey. As the show went on, other fans have been comparing her physical appearance to these actresses:
When Anna had shorter hair, I’m told she reminds someone of a young Ally Sheedy:
Ally Sheedy, actress from the 80’s…
A younger Anna Friel with shorter hair…
Anna also slightly resembles Sara Groves, a Christian Music Artist (photo to the right), who I see to be someone who’s also similar in looks as Evangeline Lilly. Some of my friends think Anna looks like Eve, too…but I fail to see the resemblance. Yet if you scroll down this site, they do think think Eve and Anna are look-a-likes.
This younger picture of Faye Dunaway reminds me a bit of Anna, too.
Does Anna resemble any of these actresses or do you have another face in mind? Does having a lot of look-a-likes makes her beauty pretty common? What do you think?

Is it just me or doesn’t she share a striking resemblance with Mary Louise Parker?

[...] how different the two sisters seem - with Emily appearing to be so sophisticated and formal, while Zooey seems to fit the role of the littler sister as being carefree and fun. (Not that Emily [...]

My wife and I were totally freaked out by the fact that Zooey D. wasn’t the lead actress on Pushing Daisies, even though somehow we always assumed she was! It wasn’t until we saw the Jesse James movie and looked up the imdb page and didn’t see Pushing Daisies in Zooey’s credits that we learned of Anna Friel. WTF? Hey, by the way, don’t you think that Amy Adams and Isla Fisher look alike? I was confused why “Amy Adams” had changed her name for the movie Confessions of a Shopaholic. Why? Because it wasn’t her at all!
