We have many films about historical figures who played an important role in any sphere of our lives. The transformation of the actor in his historical character is not an easy task, as well as the emotional level of resembling that figure.
However, some people have done it so well that to distinguish the actors from the real historical figure is almost impossible. Helen Mirren as Queen Elizabeth, Salma Hayek as Frida Kahlo, Cate Blanchett, has created a movie image of Bob Dylan – they were all geniuses of transformation.
