The Moment I Fell For... Daniel Craig

.

I kinda wish I could say with all honesty that it was the moment when he popped out of the water in the trailer for Casino Royale just so I could post that picture for the five-thousandth time (it really will never ever grow old), but I was really a big fan of Craig's before he became Bond, and it was this terrifically underrated movie that sealed the deal. It might not have been this moment in particular that did it, maybe it was something in his sweet, slowly unraveling relationship with Samantha Morton's character that was it, but it was this movie where I knew I'd follow the dude forever so I figured I'd have to pick something from it so why not post the gay bit. I love the fact that he's continually played gay (or gay-kiss-inclined, as it were) but I do wish he'd pick a partner hotter than Toby Jones or Rhys Ifans or Derek Jacobi... maybe when he's on-stage with Hugh Jackman...? I dare to dream too big, I do. Anyway, it was just an (super crazy big) added bonus that Danny looked so good in a square-cut swimsuit; he's an enormously talented actor outside of that goodness.

I never saw a Bond film ever until Casino Royale and the scenes with him in the ocean wearing those short light blue swim trunks is why I saw it in the theatre, and that Daniel is fucking hot too, I know it's shallow.

sorry - i have to say that i fell in love with him after his performance in "the mother". enough heat from that man to raise a cougar overtaking her daughter.
