FOM #10: Ethan Hawke

I’ve been quietly carrying a torch for this guy for quite some time now. So what if this dude is 38 years old–he’s Texan, and he has some really nice looking nostrils. In fact, I’m pretty sure I dated one of my ex’s because of a strong resemblance. Even though he was a little on the gnarly-90′s side when I first “took notice” of him in Reality Bites I have to say the thought of a dude that could be such a complete mind-fuck got me wondering. (Yes, I realize actors are generally nothing like the characters they portray in movies but since that’s all I have to go off of please just let me have my fantasy.)

Here’s the thing: he reconciled for the epic-bad 90′s romantic comedy that is Reality Bites (which I love, for the record) by starring in Gattaca. Greasy hair be gone! Effeminate nostrils, activate!

I realized how truly attractive this man is after seeing him in Taking Lives–but it might’ve just been the slightly twinge of jealousy I had that he got to roll around naked with Angelina Jolie. I don’t care that it was just for a movie part or that everyone else said her boobs looked “saggy” in the unrated version of the film (a filthy lie if I ever heard one)… I was jealous. Then I looked at his perfect little pointy nose and realized I wanted to be sandwiched between the two.
