Comments:
Handsome, featuring great mutton chops. But such an intense face, with eyes like a fiery preacher, or a hypnotist. A face that’s both enticing and unsettling, which, of course, makes it fascinating to look at.
They might have used him as inspiration for the latest Mr. Rochester! http://s2.hubimg.com/u/4915697_f520.jpg
I can definitely see the resemblance! 🙂
Agreed enticing and unsettling. Those mutton chops are amazing. Unsettling too. 🙂 Great image!
Thanks, Katie!
It’s Aiden Quinn!
Ha! It’s so funny who we can seem to “recognize” in these old photos. I have one that I think looks just like Kirsten Dunst. I’ll have to post it sometime.
Wow, those eyes are so dramatic and extreme. He looks like he could win any arguement.
Ha! I agree! Even if his argument was weak, he could just flash those eyes at you and you’d say, “Okay, okay!” 🙂
Aidan Quinn, indeed!
Dang. Those mutton chops are daunting. I want a whole facial hair series from you some day…
Yeah, there’s some brilliant facial hair in some of the photos I’ve posted. Maybe I’ll have to create a special category so that you can pull them all up with one click.
