Dapper Gent!

Those magnetic pale eyes! Like amber....

WOW! I've never seen that shot before. Gosh, that's the definition of beauty!

Agreed. Paleness of the face, the dark colour of the hair, the magical glitter of the eyes... he looks as if he´s not even real.

Benedict is too good to be true! When I saw him in Hamlet the very first thought I had seeing him in front of me was "Wow, he really is real!!"

That´s exactly what I would be thinking in similar situation.

Sea glass, reflecting the light.

lol I've had that experience with seeing/meeting people I only knew on TV or in the movies. Gosh, they look exactly like they do on TV! And sound like them, too. Like duh, huh? They must hear that all the time from the public/fans.

Lol, I bet! What did I expect? That he was a 3D character?

besleybean · January 28, 2016 4:46 pm

Yes, my thought at Hamlet was just that: he's exactly how he seems.
Oh and that is my favourite of Sherlock's dressing gowns.

Aw, yes, nakahara! That wonderful period shoot they did for TIG. Although just a tiny bit frustrating… those great pics that get floated all over the internet, wish people didn't always need to crop it down to just the person… the background itself is cool, too…!

And then here he is seen leaving!

besleybean · January 28, 2016 7:26 pm

One day he'll actually wear a jacket that fits him.

This Is The Phantom Lady · January 28, 2016 7:33 pm

It does look like he borrowed daddy's jacket. But he's still handsome even then.

nakahara · January 28, 2016 7:47 pm

Cool pictures anyway.

Yitzock · January 28, 2016 7:53 pm

The fit doesn't look that weird to me...not until you pointed it out, but I'm still not sure. Still like it, though.

That's the style now, apparently. I see it all over the place on TV, on talk shows, etc, when the guy celebs come on to talk about themselves and their newest projects. Really narrow trousers, small jackets that seem too short and tight. 'Course, on Ben, who could have been a model, if his stars had aligned in a different way, e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g looks good. He has the height and lean build to pull off anything, pretty much. Which yes, I know goes without saying. yum

Is it? I thought it looked like it fit him… just a little short in the sleeves, and hem. (But concur with him pulling off anything!)

Where to begin...

besleybean · January 29, 2016 6:57 pm

Oof.

You can be surprised though. I met one of my idols and was totally gobsmacked by how short they were.
