Does Rock Musician Kurt Cobain Resemble Robert De Niro & Kirsten Dunst Of Wag The Dog (1992)?
Kurt Cobain, lead singer of the alternative rock band Nirvana may resemble actor Robert De Niro & possibly actress Kirsten Dunst. The 2 appeared together in Barry Levinson's 1997 political satire Wag The Dog.
Connections:
The films of director Milos Forman may shed light on those that resemble the singer.
Woody Harrelson had a part in Wag The Dog as Sergeant William Schumann. He portrayed Hustler magazine editor Larry Flint in Forman's 1996 biographical film The People VS Larry Flint. Musician & actress Courtney Love also starred in this (she was married to Cobain from 1992-1994).
Nirvana bass guitarist Krist Novoselic may resemble comedian Andy Kaufman, subject of Forman's Man On The Moon (1999) which included Jim Carrey and Courtney Love in the cast.
Forman's Amadeus (1984) about composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart may also be an indicator that another prominent musician may be referenced in his movies.
Kirsten Dunst can be linked to movie director Gus Van Sant who loosely based his fictional 2005 film Last Days on Kurt Cobain. Dunst was in the cast of 2012's On The Road, based on the writing by Jack Kerouac. Van Sant expressed interest in developing this project, eventually envisioned by Walter Salles.
Alternatively, I thought Kurt Cobain may resemble Robert De Niro and possibly actor Kenneth Branagh. These 2 were together inn the cast of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein in 1994 (also directed by Branagh).
