Do you know how it feels when…

Well handsome and pretty have been fairly genericized today. Maybe you are ugly, but you could have a sexy character look. I find character to be an underrated quality in beauty. For instance take old homes with old splattershot neighborhood designs that had no planning. They are many times far more romantic and charming than a polished, cookie-cutter suburban layout. The same goes with famous actors and all my favorites that I’d like to connect with all have unique character looks: Steve Buscemi, John Goodman, Joe Pesci, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken, Jason Alexander and Jack Black. You wouldn’t immediately think of these men as handsome looking, but they have unique captivating looks that draw you in. They are extremely witty and charismatic too which has made them lovable household names. Even fatness can be an attractive feature and there was a scene in The Gambler that drove this point home for me. It was when John Goodman, playing as a gangster, took his robe off in a luxurious sauna, and you could see the rolls of backfat drape his lower back. This scene did a masterful job of portraying him as an affluent man of power. I highly recommend you rent that movie. It’s a great thriller and Mark Wahlberg deals with some profound existential themes in his literature class, and his berzerk gambling life outside the classroom.
