Interestingly saw him just the other night in a film "I Capture the Castle" and was staring at him (not knowing "who" he was) but thinking, "I know that face!" Although the film was 11 years or so ago, I had never seen it before - nor remember seeing him in movies as an adult, although he has worked consistently.

Yes Marylander, I was struck at how he is still good-looking, in a "guy-next-door" way. I was flipping through movies when I saw this one about "Castle" that also had repeated shots of him in a towel coming out of a bathroom... granted not muscled up or super-sexy, he was natural enough for me to say, "Yeah, nice!" By the way - his acting in the film was quite good too.

Thanks Marylander. That was very interesting to watch.

It sounds like a Tea Party-Koch brother commercial... "I'm from the government and I want to force your alien to join Obamacare".

 

How many conservatives are willing to acknowledge the Air Force is part of the government and people who work there also work for the federal government? I'm sure they have doubts about those lazy bureaucrats of NASA. LOL

Not anymore, at least from my point of view. If you see his latest pictures he's good looks are gone.

I guess rednecks want to live without minimum wage... Isn't that a big part of their platform?

That was some lousy script the off-camera guy had.

Pretty remarkable how he could turn on those tears pronto.

 

Thanks for posting this.
