The combination of a drizzly day, a long zoom across the marsh, some camera shake, and autumn reeds made this photo turn out like an Impressionistic painting.

Impressionist Jim Meskimen impresses in this excerpt from Shakespeare’s Richard III with a plethora of spot-on celebrity impersonations. I think his Richard Burton, Woody Allen, and Garrison Keillor are particularly good, but I don’t think there’s a miss in the lot. Let me know which ones you most enjoy.

The 61 impressions in this recitation of the Declaration of Independence by impressionist Jim Meskimen are not all perfect, but when he hits, which is the majority of the time, he’s very good. Given that he does this all in one take, with a pre-determined text, and seamless transitions, it’s a pretty remarkable feat. Favorites: George W. Bush, JFK, Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Woody Allen, Ian McKellan, Cary Grant, and Peter Falk.
