There are a lot of siblings involved in the film industry. Some jump readily to mind: the clan Wayans, the Coppola dynasty, the Hemsworth brood. Others meanwhile, elicited an “oh yeah…” response. I decided I would list, analyze, synthesize, hypothesize & scrutinize until I had it narrowed down to HOLLYWOOD’S BEST SIBLINGS.
The following is my original, unedited article written in July, 2017.
Plus some pictures for added pizzazz.

This proved more difficult than I had anticipated (who’d’a thunk, right?) How do you compare and contrast such diverse bodies of work in the ever-changing landscape of cultural relevance? I was advised to forego more quantifiable data in favor of a more esoteric, abstract approach. So I researched bloodlines, quizzed co-workers and performed cryptic ceremonies; I fasted, consulted almanacs and entered labyrinthine trance-worlds while perusing tabloid magazines in the supermarket checkout. I awarded arbitrary points for things I like (cult affiliations, professed UFO beliefs, smashing the patriarchy simply by being a woman) and subtracted equally arbitrary ones for things I don’t like (domestic violence, hate-speak, any association with the TV show Entourage).
This chart is the codified result of my ordeals.
