After seeing this, I am more hungry than ever for Elijah to do a film set during the Renaissance or some other era of beautiful men's clothing.

Ah, Goldenberry, to see EW in costume again. If ever there was an actor wasted on the present, wearing modern-day dress, it is he.

* sigh *

Looking at this, I was thinking that may be another reason Elijah was such a perfect Frodo. He was young enough to be utterly beautiful and vulnerable, but he was able to protray that gravity and integrity in his face and bearing that let us see the nobility of Frodo's character too.

Oh, that is cool. And I think you are so right. If some other actor had played all the same objectives PJ and Walsh/Boyens had given EW for Frodo, the role would have turned out very differently, just because of that.

Wow! I've never seen Frodo dressed before! *is restrained by admiring group before she can begin tearing this slinky ensemble off* :-D

Hey, Rip, you leave that outfit alone. Arwen made that with her very own hands once she had finished Aragorn's banner. (I wish I could have been there for the fittings. I'll bet it took her forever to the she hose and breeches right.)

rrrrrrrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiippppppppppppppppppppppp!!

*blinks* Sorry, what were you saying?

"she hose" -- "she hose?" (I know it's a typo, but it's very intriguing).

Nope, let Arwen keep the "she hose". I'll take the "he hose" any day of the week! Nights, weekends, whatever. :-D *blows you a kiss * don't ask what I do regarding Frodo blowing...*

Oh, for heaven's sake. I was hurrying, Mariole. You were supposed to guess what that meant: "It took her forever to get the hose and breeches right." Ah, the perils of cut-and-paste quickies.

You stop it about that hose. I'll bet his hose is silky, and a perfect fit.

I do wish we could persuade EW to spend a day or two at a costumer's and let himself be kitted out in various suitable attires complete with hair, etc.

I sooooo want to see him as a tousled Octavian waking up in the arms of Marie Thérèse (the Marschallin) in Der Rosenkavalier. I could use any photographs as illustrations for Threshold.

No, don't stop.

Ooooooh, Pearl, I love that scenario. Especially the "full, sort lips slightly parted." It makes my desires-to-kiss metre soar right up to ten out of ten.

Bunch of perves.

I like the way his finger is marking that book.

What an eye your have, Peachy!

I don't know what it reminds you of, but now that you direct my attention there, I keep seeing the way his finger splits those pages as quite suggestive. As if Georgia O'Keefe had stopped painting exotic flower interiors to paint fingers delving down between pages of books placed up on end. That really is very sensuous looking to me, the way his finger has insinuated itself into that cleft. Nice how the edges of the pages are rosy-tinted, too.

Gawd. Now I'm perving on fingers in books. I always knew literature was sexy.
