The Handmaid's Tale (1990) actress Natasha Richardson may bear a slight resemblance to musicians Paul McCartney & George Harrison of The Beatles.
Connections:
- Vanessa Redgrave was among the cast of Richard Richard Attenborough's 1969 musical comedy Oh! What a Lovely War. Reportedly, McCartney met with the film's producer to work out a deal to have the Beatles portray the Smith family, but this never panned out.
- Liam Neeson worked with Michael Caine on films like Chris Nolan's Batman trilogy (Caine was in Alfie (1966) with Jane Asher). Caine was in the 1967 Tonite Let's All Make Love in London music scene documentary. John Lennon was featured in this.

01:08This is my second video looking at Natasha Richardson.
01:12In the original, I thought she may resemble Timothy Spall and Christian Bale.
01:17While recently viewing some clips of this actress, I couldn't help but remark at her slight likeness to Beatles musicians,
01:28George Harrison, who I think is a somewhat stronger resemblance, and Paul McCartney.
01:34Alright, connections.
01:35Yeah, it's no surprise that there are many links here.
01:39Vanessa Redgrave practically acting royalty.
01:42So if you look in the past, you'll find many joint appearances at film premieres, etc.
01:50Oh, What a Lovely War in 1969.
01:53A musical comedy directed by Richard Attenborough.
01:57Vanessa Redgrave had a part in this.
01:59Along with Maggie Smith, John Jilgood, John Mills, Lawrence Olivier, Ralph Richardson, Ian Holm, Susanna York.
02:07And reportedly at this time, the Beatles members were interested in making an anti-war film.
02:13According to the story, Paul McCartney met with Oh, What a Lovely Wars producer to discuss a possibility of the band portraying the Smith family.
02:23With Liam Neeson as well, there's some big connections.
02:26Actor Michael Caine, for example, who is in several films with Vanessa Redgrave.
02:31Together in the 1967 music documentary, Tonight, Let's All Make Love in London.
02:37John Lennon of the Beatles appears in this.
02:39Along with Mick Jagger, Julie Christie, Pink Floyd, and Allen Ginsberg.
02:45My YouTube channel is Easter Egg Psychic.
02:47There I go back and look at movies and television from the past.
02:50I analyze these for possible references to future media.
02:53These may appear in the form of anecdotes, idioms, anagrams, hidden in the subtext of the work in question.
03:00I also use an unconventional method where I look at the likenesses of the actors.
03:07What I found is you can take the likenesses, match these up to some of the anecdotal items,
03:13and show past, present, and future information about actors and other personalities
03:19or may resemble the personalities in the movie or television episode that you're watching.
03:26My email contact is easteregguy, that's G-U-Y, at yahoo.com.
03:33Thanks for watching.
