PG is always playing basically himself. His look and voice are so distinctively his that no matter whether he is on Downton Abbey, or Sideways, or John Adams, you can never for even a moment escape the realization that you are watching Paul Giamatti. Barbra Streisand is the same way - no matter how theoretically varied the role it’s always Barbra.
