Siggys Page
Sean Bean (Not
Gerry):
Sean Bean as Richard
Sharpe. Le sigh. Le moan. Le swoon. I know. My French
sucks. Sorry Femme.
Yeah Sean is
adorable. Sexy smile. Somehow he always manages to look like he
just got caught with his hand in the cookie jar whenever he grins.
Sean very nobly portrayed Robert Aske, the leader of the Pilgrimage of
Grace in the mini-series Henry VIII. Yorkshire born, Aske was a lawyer
who simply wanted the monasteries restored. The king had ordered them
closed and had pillaged them. 40,000 strong - they marched on London
and Henry agreed to their demands - only to exercise the kings
perogative after the army had disbanded and changed his mind.
Aske was brought to Westminster in chains and hung as a traitor.
I love it when Sean is the good guy. He spent entirely too much time in
American cinema being the bad guy. Andy McNab? Like Robert Aske,
decidedly the good guy
here.
Another Sean as Sharpe siggy. Someone once called him "the ladies bit
o'rough". Yeah I really have to agree. If anyone is familiar with the
series - I really just want him to kick my door in, apologize, then
grab me.
I am one of these dweebs who wanted to know nothing about LOTR before
it was released. My reaction upon seeing Boromir? "Oh lookit! Sean
Bean!" Somehow I don't think the folks sitting around me appreciated
that.
Combo (Not Gerry):
That right folks - I am cheating on
Gerry. With 4 of the most
beautiful men on the face of the planet. Left to right in my siggy?
Sean Bean, Tony Curran, Geraint Wyn Davies
and Arnold Vosloo. An Englishman, a Scot, a Welshman and a South
African.....hmm.....think
I have a thing about accents?
Tony Curran (Not Gerry): do we see a pattern
here?
Another friend of mine wanted a siggy
with that other adorable
red-headed Scot, Tony Curran as Jamie Fraser. Tony just makes me drool.
He passed a comment about my bodice at the Toronto Film Festival and
practically shouted "Dayum!" across the VIP section at the B & G
after-party. A man after my.....well........um....heart apparently. He
really is adorable. Wanted to pull on his ponytail. Gerry who?
Okay so I like Tony. So sue me. I loved him in The 13th Warrior -
like Gerry he is another actor who dissapears into the roles he plays.
Case and point.
A red-headed vampire. Who'd have thunk it? Still wanna pull his
ponytail. Unfortunately he cut it off.
More from The 13th Warrior.
Geraint Wyn Davies:
Here we have the first actor I had a major crush on. Saw him on the
stage in London almost 20 years ago. He is perfectly gorgeous and a
really nice guy. When he took the role of Nick Knight - I flipped. A
vampire? Slurp. A blonde vampire with big blue eyes? Gawd!
Gerry/Other Combo:
Kilts have many
advantages - for ladies as well as gentlemen. Tee-hee. Love a man in a
kilt - there is nothing as gorgeous as a man in a well fitting, well
draped kilt.
Arnold Vosloo:
Some people don't find Arnold attractive. I
do. When I saw The Mummy and everyone was gushing over Brendan Fraser
and Oded Fehr - I just wanted to know who the heck Imhotep was. Sexiest
bald bad guy I have ever seen and he didn't even speak English.
