No matter what you might believe, acting well for the camera is no easy endeavor. The techniques involved might boggle the mind of even the most seasoned stage actor. Once you have experienced the craft for yourself, you might even forgive some of those screen stars you hate on with an undeniable passion. (Except Kristen Stewart. God, she's atrocious.) But what's an even more daunting and rewarding task than playing a film character well? Why, playing two of course. And twins, no less! Here's a look at the 10 most convincing performances of one actor playing twins.
10. Bette Davis in A Stolen Life (1946)
In A Stolen Life, the characters of Kate and Patricia Bosworth both have Bette Davis Eyes, because, well, they're both played by that queen of early 20th century cinema, Bette Davis. The movie finds the multi-Oscar-winning actress playing an artist and her cold-hearted twin who steals the love her life away. It's not her best-loved or best-known film, but A Stolen Life succeeds in showcasing the extraordinary talents of an unforgettable leading lady.
