I’ve seen more films of Ioan Gruffud's lately.

I saw the first 6 Horatio Hornblower films, Wilde, Very Annie Mary, and Solomon and Gaenor.

I love him even more now, but I wish I would stop CRYING!

The best part of Very Annie Mary was when Matthew Rhys and Ioan sang “Mary Get Your Gun”. They were just so cute and GAY in that movie. I just loved ( Read more... )

I love their singing in Very Annie-Mary! Though Hob and Nob are very mean to poor Annie-Mary in that scene you capped, they're truly loveable. *hugs them*

John Gray's "I'm halfway through hellfire, I'm not joking," made me sniffle. He's so adorable and Bosie is such an idiot and plays with Wilde's feelings and it's all so very wrong. Wilde should have "married" John Gray and lived with him happily ever after.

I LOVE Steve and Jeff in Coupling. All of them are brilliant, but Steve and Jeff in particular. Steve is wonderful and a bit awkward and very cute, and Jeff is totally insane, just like you said. They're excellent together. :D You must continue watching it, it keeps getting better and better! (Oh, and have you watched InfernoI'm a bit torn about Mariette. I mean, of course, they had to put a bit of het in the movie so that it doesn't seem so gay (the book doesn't have Mariette), but I don't think it was very believable. Hornblower acted too prudish around her - and there's a difference between being gay and being polite. *LOL ( ... )

Yes, she was being an idiot, but she had good intentions. After all, she could have won something and maybe doubled the money for Bethan. I just can't be mad with her. ;)

Unfortunately Bosie came into the picture and fucked it all up.
My point exactly. Bosie annoys me to no end and he's so useless that I wish he weren't in the movie (and in Oscar Wilde's RL) at all. Such an idiot. And in the end, it was him who destroyed Oscar. *grmbls* I hate him.

I like how awkward and cute Steve can be.
I especially like his shocked face, for example when Jane tells him about "Elizabeth"... :D So cute!

it seemed like he loved herYeah. Not like he loved Bush or Archie - though I've come to think that while Horatio and Archie are cute together, movie!canon doesn't really encourage me to think they were lovers, especially because of that thing with Simpson. It's merely implied, of course, but I'm certain Simpson raped Archie, and I suppose it will take him a long time until he can finally have sex again, especially with another man. But I'm getting ( ... )

Yeah, it's hard to dislike her.

I know, and leaving John Gray for him was the stupidest thing Oscar ever did. Though, really they deserved each other.

Oh yeah, Steve's shocked face is great, but never forget the power of his sweet face. Like when he smiled at Susan at the end of "Patrick's Closet of Love" before Jeff appeared.

He just loved her, but wasn't in love with her. Glad to know I'm not the only one that thinks Simpson did that. Archie's mortal fear of him and Simpson's "Jack's missed you boy" implied way too much. I think you're right about Archie.

I want to see the movie soon, but the holiday in the US on Monday means the post office stopped and it might not get here until next week.

They must all become his fangirls!
