resemblance

Officially, “The Beast in Me” isn’t based on any true story, although its resemblance to the events of “The Jinx: The Life and Deaths of Robert Durst” is impossible to ignore.

Either way, people love to point out the resemblance with wide eyes and goofy grins, as if it’s my first time hearing the comparison.

The birds’ resemblance to ordinary barnyard chickens was deemed remarkable, and many commented upon it.

“A mysterious young princess, and the three true heirs —of course you’re much too young to be their mother, though I do see a resemblance.”

This is also as fine a time as any to acknowledge that our interpretation of diversity in this film’s context has little resemblance to how it’s defined in American culture.
