a knight's tale

[cimorene]

a knight's tale: cute despite cheap mercury-less version of 'we are the champions' and a bit too much het romance. if left to my own devices i'd go for more money shots of rufus sewell and fewer of heath ledger--which i'd have thought a no-brainer, actually, but i suppose everyone can't share my exquisite taste.

pardon me while i think about rufus sewell and purr.

ahem. okay, so, paul is just ruddy adorable. he did chaucer so well! he's really a fabulous actor, which you see, i think, only after having watched two very different movies. proves his versatility, don't you know. right, so, i dislike blonde men, in general, but he has more of that impossible, white-freckled-translucent redhead's complexion, with his hair practically free of melanin so his face turns far redder all the time--and his adorable blond eyelashes and eyebrows! ahh, his stance and his walk, though, or should i say swagger? in my view he totally steals the show.

i tend to like bad guys, actually. like holy hell ian mckellen as richard iii? yeahh.... and a lot of others. alan rickman as snape. :D i'm a fangirl, i'll admit it. i always like the baddies. especially when the goodies are shallow and boring.

me too.

and when i was little i always wished i could play them in a play because they always looked like the most fun. like, for instance, maleficent or scar. or lina lamont in singin in the rain.

i've not seen richard the iii, but yeah, sir ian is up there in my list of sexy old men, and so is alan rickman. (rufus sewell is a generation younger than them, which is to say, the right age for sirius and remus. and rickman is perfect for his part except for being too old.) anyway, his magneto definitely made a fangirl of me. 'she's good.' 'you have no idea.' aahahaha SQUEE.

i totally squeed at that point too. mystique's powers leave SO MUCH GOODNESS to the imagination, and mine likes to go into things like that. i adored magneto, so so much. that was my other example that i forgot. magneto all the way.

i recommend watching richard iii. sir ian was so deliciously evil, and there is asides, so he lets the audience in on it! i love that. made me feel evil, too.
