Jared Kushner turned heads (and not for the best reasons) with his Axios interview this past weekend, but it wasn't what he said that drew our attention – it was who he resembled.
Jared Kushner has kept a low media profile since he took his position with the White House some two years ago, so his

But what jumped out at us at EDGE was how much Kushner resembles an obscure character from a 1961 B-movie thriller.
That character is Warren, one-half of the two roles played by actress Jean Arless in William Castle's thriller that played like a B-movie version of "Psycho." In addition to Warren, Arless played an icy blonde, Emily, with a homicidal streak. She was far more convincing as Emily than the stiff, tucked Warren, whose androgynous looks bear more than a passing resemblance to Kushner. Whether audiences were fooled by this deception is up in the air, but the movie has more than its share of thrills and features one of Castle's best gimmicks – The Fright Break, a break in the story that offered an on-screen clock that counted down the time for terrified audience members to head to the Coward's Corner located in the lobby.
Arless was the pseudonym for actress Joan Marshall, a character actress in Hollywood movies and television in the 1950s and 1960s. Married five times, in the early 1970s, she inspired her then-husband director Hal Ashby to make "Shampoo" from stories she told him about her life in Hollywood prior to their marriage.
