Google "Sons of Lee Marvin"

Tall, lean, prematurely gray, but other than that not much resemblance.

reply

Yeah. I always thought people who confused the two were not really familiar with either actor. They don't look anything like one another once you get past the gray hair.

reply

No.

As soon as I saw the title of your thread I realized the similarities:

Same eyes and mouth

Face shape

As a kid growing up in the 70s and watching both Coburn and Marvin films I always felt there were similarities, even though they're very much different. As James got older near the end of his life he reminded me a lot of John Houston and even had those long disfigured finger joints.

When I was younger I used to mix them up.
