Boyfriend wrote a quick livejournal entry about his new found Movie Star girlfriend (Ellen Page) and his tv girlfriend (Kate Walsh), which got me thinking, I’m surprisingly loyal to my cinematic crushes.
No matter how sucky the plot (Pearl Harbor) I have to see every Josh Hartnett film that hits theaters. He’s been my main movie man since middle school.
That bone structure, that jaw line, and can we say, to borrow Brookem’s term, a good HOH! Swoon! Not to mention that he resembled a huge middle school crush of mine (who recently got married, weird!). It’s been me and Mr. Hotnett since 6th grade. We’d probably get along well too, we share the same sign (Cancer). However, I’m not sure I could ever handle a man who’s prettier than me so our relationship was doomed from the beginning. Seriously, I’d probably just stare at him and forgot to speak, “Wow….You’re puurty,” and that would be the end of that encounter. Sigh. I’m content to stare at him in his awful plot-lacking movies.
On to the girls. Or girl, since for me there is just one. Ms. Knightley.
God. Not only is she amazingly hot, but she’s BRITISH. This is the only thing that could elevate Hotnett to god status in my book, if he developed an Irish accent. Get that boy in a sweater and you’d have the epitome of my physical ideal. But anyway, Keira=goddess, as you might have noticed from my 101 about me page it wouldn’t take much for me to switch teams for her. I think with girl crushes it’s more about “God, I wished I looked like that” than “God I wish that was in my bed right now, preferably with ice cream and undying devotion.” But really, with her, I’d take either.
Beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, but to me, Keira and Josh set the bar.


I can’t seem to think of a cinematic male crush post 1950! Cary Grant and James Stewart are still my crushes. Modern guys just don’t do it for me maybe? Ewan McGregor is not bad though..
In terms of girls, I won’t even go into the past because there’s too many, so in terms of modern day girls, I would vote for Charlotte Gainsbourg.
I think she needs a little meat on her bones … but she has a great look about her… strong woman …
