Thank Heaven for Little Boys

Off topic for this site, but you gotta see this — British actor Matthew Lewis played Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter films, and in the first film he looked like this —

— and he grew up to look like this.

Well, if I were about 40 years younger …

Well, if you get the chance, seize life. If he has any soul, he would appreciate an intelligent woman to be his companion.

If I get murdered by fascists, my wife gets her chance with Johnny Depp and if my beloved wife dies in a mine shaft explosion or some such thing, I am free to approach Emma Thompson or Karen Armstrong. But, I think little would come of it, and I most sincerely hope it remains one of those sweet mysteries of life.

I accidentally posted this link twice, but this is really worth watching.

What you lose on the peanuts…you make up for on the popcorn. Those of us who were meant to be stud muffins just have to rely on charm to get the ladies to take notice. Here’s my entry into the Maha male revue… I look a little bit like Angelo Mozillo.

Swami,
Nice!
Such a face… And I can’t tell whether you’ve got a pair of deuces or a full house.

Gwyneth Paltrow for me if I were a bit younger – Lena Horne if I was a lot older.

And if I were gay – Sean Connery. I remember the shot where they panned up on him as Agamemnon in “Time Bandits,” I was 23 and I sat there and thought – “You know, I think I can understand this whole “gay” thing…”

From the “Life is so Unfair” department:

An old high school friend of mine recently posted some photos from the annual of my sophomore year on Facebook. Mine was pretty ghastly. But, I think I missed a great opportunity to play an extraterrestrial on some “Star Trek” spinoff. I was saved by a hippie era extreme makeover and went on to lead a relatively normal life. But, how is it that some people who look like utter dweebs in their formative years go on to be very handsome adults and the rest of us just hope to muddle through life and avoid looking like the picture on our driver’s license?

A smarter friend of mine once remarked: Remember the things that the girls in high school hated you for? When you hit forty, those are the things they like about you.

“The arc of history is long …”

Matthew Lewis has 2 brothers acting in British TV series.

Afraid you’ll have to get in line behind my niece, who is 40 years younger. But even I noticed Matthew Lewis’s growth spurt between Prisoner of Azkaban and Goblet of Fire. My, I thought, he’s turning out to be quite the handsome bloke. It didn’t hurt that his character was probably my favorite.

Kate Blanchett. Or Helen Mirren or Sophia Myles. No particular attraction to Brits, but women who look good and speak their lines well score better than those who don’t.
