There's a certain resemblance, no doubt about it. I've always thought, however, that MH was much taller, although as it turns out, she's listed at 5 feet 6 while FF is five-four.
But although they could certainly play sisters the resemblance is sufficiently strong for that their appearances have some significant differences as well.
Is it just me, or does MH's body comes across as longer and leaner (whether it is or not) than FF's on camera? Or that MH seems to wear her hair longer and lower than FF usually does? Or that although they're both redheads (and naturally so, at least as far as we know:)), FF's skin seems much whiter than MH's?
Just wondering:). Bottom line, each is a fine actress and sexy woman - -

Hmmm, how to describe FF? Not classically beautiful, but attractive and definitely sexy. And like every sexy woman, she conveys a certain assurance, which she retains even when playing an oppressed and vulnerable character, as she did in "Unforgiven."
AND she's a good actress, who almost always offers a strong, solid portrayal of whatever character she's playing.
The only exception in my experience (and this of course is only my opinion) was FF's work in "Titanic." She seemed to be playing a stock figure, rather than a human being. Of course, that might also be the fault of the script, which I haven't read
