Two friends who don’t know each other posted this link on Facebook this afternoon

a number of very recognizable actors playing a number of “classic screen types.” Directed
by Solve Sundsbo, with music by former final fantasist Owen Pallet, at first I found
it a bit too self-conscious for my taste. But as I went through them all, I really started
to enjoy these portraits. I wonder what you think.
