I am incredibly hungover today after consuming 4 glasses of wine, and very little dinner last night at a benefit, however, I've decided that May will be the month of Man madness and particularly British men.
Today's specifiman is Jason Isaacs. Why? Well, I was watching this awesome miniseries this weekend called 'The State Within' on DVD and he played the British Ambassador to the US. If you get a chance, rent it from Netflix, it's really good.
He also plays Draco Malfoy's dad in the Harry Potter movies. I'm not sure when I was first aware of his work. He just seems to have appeared one day in a lot of movies that were filmed for American television in England, usually playing priests which is interesting since he's Jewish!
The picture on the left is from the film, The Patriot, which I actually hated but he was wonderful as Mel Gibson's foil, based on a real person. Now he stars in the Showtime series, The Brothers which I have to rent from Netflix.
I think what I like about him, besides his beautiful blue eyes, and his handsome face, is the intelligence of his performances. Even when he's playing a bad guy, you can sense that there is something more going on with him.
So check him out!
Thanks for reading,
EKM

I couldn't agree more! LOVE HIM. How do you feel about James McAvoy? And check out my blog if you like:

I do get crushes on actors. If you type Isaacs, or McAvoy, or Macfadyen, for example, in the search box...
Keep writing, it's a lot of fun.
