That's supposed to be Bob Evans? And moreover, you consider that an uncanny impersonation? I get the past success part, and the tons of momentos from better times, but Landau plays Bob as a straight pitchman with a voice and manner right out of Leave it to Beaver. Bob Evans hasn't uttered a sentence that wasn't dripping in Pall Malls and honey in his life. He talks like he's voicing the trailer for his life, and it's the hippest, grooviest, swingingest little slice of Sinatra-ana you're ever gonna see baby. Way different vibe from what Landau's laying down.
Evans plays like Don Lafontaine's and Dennis Hopper's love child, and Landau's channeling Ward Cleaver's and Willy Loman's.
