Artist Quirk - quirky facts about the arts by Morgan Bell

 
What is art? What inspires artists? Who do artists inspire? An examination of all that is creative: actors, writers, musicians, painters, thespians, designers, performers . . . is life imitating art? Will the modern artist survive being imitated?

Zoom In - Most Beautiful Male Faces

October 12th 2008 14:18
In the interests of fairness I have grouped together some pretty boys so we can all have a look at their facial features without being distracted by their other assets!

I hope nobody notices the running theme is that they all slightly resemble elves! haha

Oh I love Cillian Murphy. And Johnny Depp will always be the most gorgeous man I have ever seen.

hi Ruby,
im a bit obsessed with Cillian actually, he has one of the most "pretty" faces ive ever seen!
and good old Johnny, he really has raised the beauty bar stakes for every male actor that has followed him!

Woohoo! What a nice thing to see first thing in the morning!

I Loooove Ewan McGregor, and have been meaning to profile him on Beta Girl for some time. Maybe today! (Stay tuned)

By they way, they all totally do have something elven about their faces! I always am most attracted to men who are completely masculine but have a slight feminine aspect to their faces. Perhaps it is in the eyes. Maybe it adds to the openness.

hi Natalie,
haha i basically prefer to gaze at men that i could find under a magic mushroom at the bottom of my garden!
im sure someone will tell me the features they have in common - i think they all might have pointy ears and high cheekbones!
Ewan McGregor is so adorable, i love his smile!
i cant wait for your profile!

I think it could also be that they all have slightly downward pointed noses. Look at them! They all have the same nose!

YUMMY nice list Morgan - I knew who your first two would be and I just love Hayden. Tut tut - No Leo!!!!!!! Ewan McGregor looks like he needs a straight jacket in that pic. And GO LENNY!!!! I was obsessed for years and slept over to get tickets to every concert when he first came to Australia - I screamed at him during the concert until he pointed at me and winked. LOL. I also met him at a signing at the city but he was a dick. I was crushed. But so talented.

hi Natalie,
i think i left my heart in Narnia or Middle Earth as a kid!


hi Jason,
no Leo for me personally, but i would be really interested to see who you would put on a list - please make one!
i was a huge fan of Lenny in primary school and early high school before i switched my devotion over entirely to Soundgarden!
were you impressed how i invented a post where i could put Cillian and McAvoy side by side?


hi alt_ed,
they do not!

LOL - I knew you would do it one day soon.
I have a challenge do I? I will do my list when back from annual leave.

Even the ones who don't normally look like pixie-people have that air about them in your collection of snaps, Morgan!

I concur with Johnny, Timothy and James McAvoy (with Scottish accent only), they are superb. Lenny, Joaquin and Ewan are alright, but the rest are not really my style, not even in the 'pretty' stakes. I find Cillian Murphy particularly creepy!

I think I like the brooding, imperfect look more.

Cool post!

They all look as though Tila Swinton's had them stored up her clacker for the better part of a decade. And why do they all have such greasy hair?

These male faces are not beautiful at all! They are horrible, there are a few ok ones but most of them are not.

You like very feminine faces don't you Morgan I agree with a couple on your list - Johnny Depp goes without saying, Chiwetel Ejiofor is majorly hot, Lenny Kravitz is sex on a stick, Ewan is a cutie but Cillian creeps me out!

Nice follow up o the Zoom in on female faces.. As always, Johnny Depp outshines everyone, me thinks lol

Ewan McGregor comes a close second (again, my list of cuties also happen to be terribly good actors which goes to show just how unshallow I am) hahhahahha!

I wonder why Brad Pitt isn't on your list though. As far as I know Pitt can act albeit sometimes overshadowed by his looks.

Oh..and you should have included Viggo Mortensen (albeit not pixie looking)!

hi Jason,
yes you can consider that an official challenge!
i bet you pick some really good ones - you have a good eye for these thoughts of things!


hi Michaelie,
i knew you would raise your hand for Timothy - i saw quite alot of pics of him completely bald, an assassin role i have not yet seen him in!


hi alt_ed,
im pretty sure none of them have greasy hair, perhaps a bit of product, and definately nothing from the rear end of Ms Swinton!


hi Anonymous,
geez youre hard to please!
horrible indeed . . .


hi Cheryl,
basically if you cant pass for a dragqueen you wont be on the list! haha
im glad you enjoyed running your eyeballs over a few of them!


hi Cass,
Viggo and Brad do have their own masculine charm . . . but theyre not really elves are they? lol
maybe i should re-name this post Most Beautiful Femme Elves?


also i would just like to say in bold (to Michaelie and Cheryl)
CILLIAN MURPHY IS NOT CREEPY!
hes an Aphrodite!
(or maybe an Androdite)


thanks for the comments everyone!

ooh Morgan
I don't get the cillian thing at all, looks like a young lad from next door.

I would do Ewan McGregor any time he wanted a bit of action, all he needs to do is ask.
I agree with Cheryl Lenny Kravitz is definitely sex on a stick.

They are the only two that really do it for me on that list I have to say

mmm, they're a bit feminine looking for me. i love johnny depp though - he must have a painting of himself somewhere that's doing all the ageing.

hi Sara,
haha perhaps i should forward your proposal to Mr McGregor - im sure he would be flattered!
he has a cheeky face, hes one of those people that i will go out of my way to see a movie if hes one of the stars!


hi Bookgirl,
i love the dorian gray reference!
and i agree he has held his age very well, maybe its all due to good skin or good genes?

hi Lily,
oh Chris has a beautiful smile, im glad you can appreciate it!
i see Johnny is a favourite with almost everyone!


hi Janet,
it probably isnt a typical list, my tastes are a little left of centre . . . probably leaning towards the more boyish or elfin faces . . . at least we can all agree on Johnny!
