Silly things that people do in front of cameras
There are few things I love more than lulzy facial expressions, and while the Band of Brothers cast is gorgeous, it also has more than its fair share of rubberfaces. Here are about 70 of my favorite caps from the "Making Of" feature, with a few boot camp stills thrown in -- and seriously, this is less than half of what I took. There are probably 50 more of Frank John Hughes alone, so if anyone wants the full set for any reason, let me know and I'll happily upload it.
Dale Dye impersonation: that's all you need to know.
Cudlitz is not safetied to his satisfaction - but apparently nothing can secure a guy's dignity the first time he makes his 40-foot tower jump.
I dare you to tell me he doesn't look at least a little bit crazy there.
The body of evidence speaks for itself: this man? Is a genius.
Even when he is grouchy, cold and very not impressed.
How is it that Joe Toye is so very grouchy and Kirk is seriously Mr. Giggles?
Yeah, these just made me smile. If that's Peter McCabe, and I think it might be, he just makes me smile by default.
Speaking of which...
Fact one about Richard Speight: he has neither teeth nor lips. He's just made of pure merriment. Let's watch.
I don't know if that's actually Barantini with Ben Caplan's ankles around his neck, but either way, have you ever seen anyone looking as gloriously dubious as Ben does right there?
That, on the other hand, getting touched up by makeup? I am totally convinced that is our boy Phil.
Also, screw you, Eion Bailey: this is the only vaguely lulzy face on you I could catch. Everything else is just obscenely pretty (see below).
This gets no resizing. LOOK AT THEIR FACES. OH HARRY WELSH, THAT IS JOY KNOWN ONLY TO KINDERGARDENERS.
P.S. I am easy for Easy
Hi, my name's Ron Livingston.
This shot always gives me chills: it really feels to me like it's not looking at an actor, it's us interrupting a machine gunner while he's trying to do his job.
Crazy... but also pretty. Okay.
Hilarious... but also sensitive and articulate.

Oh Donnie.
I really think he looks like Humphrey Bogart there.
