Choosing the best actor is always the best strategy.
River Phoenix had the jawline and was able to sell the indy mannerisms.

Its not that I don't agree with you, acting ability is more important than looks but the guy doesn't even look one bit like Harrison other than hair color. I just can't believe they couldn't get a little bit closer.
