Today's Lunchtime Poll (what, we eat late)...
Which movie star would drive you mad if they dumped you after a brief torrid sexual affair?
Reader Comments (52)
Michael Fassbender, of course.
I think I speak for everyone when I answer: Seth Green
Kathleen Turner for sure. Of course, after she dumped me I'd probably be in jail for a murder I didn't commit.
hmmm I'd say Hugh Jackman but i can't see myself going Fatal Attraction on him, he's too clean cut.
So, I'm going to say Colin Farrell would drive me mad. tire slashing mad. keying of his car mad. Yup, Colin Farell
*disclaimer - i'm not really a psycho.
Michelle Pfeiffer, but then again maybe no. Hmmmm.
Maybe someone in this list
Demi Moore, Michael Fassbender, Angelina Jolie
Alden Ehrenreich. He seems so irresistibly cute in "Beautiful Creatures" that I imagine I'd probably die adorability deficiency after one night with him.
So the answer isn't Michael Douglas?
Good, because the answer is Costner. The answer will always be Costner.
Ezra Miller. There would be nothing after.
LOL, I'm already madly in love with Russell Crowe, and he's just cruel enough to elicit rage from me so I'm sure it would be him. Yes, my wife knows this. He's my free pass. She's 'understanding'...
Tom Hardy.
The correct answer is Christina Hendricks.
Tom Hardy of course!
If we were talking TV star it would have to be Christopher Meloni.
gary cooper ! apparently it was easy to be crazy of him http://thehairpin.com/2012/06/scandals-of-classic-hollywood-that-divine-gary-cooper
Fassbender. No other answer is acceptable. As if!
Paul Newman at any age.
Brando in his prime years.
And I'll echo the Fassbender mentions. I can't think of any other contemporary actor who was as casually, volcanically sexy as he was to me in Fish Tank.
Clive Owen, of course!
Dorothy Malone, circa Written on the Wind. That seems like it'd be hard to come back from...
MDA -- you are correct about your correctness
The Pretentious - LOL. So true.
I would have to pick a character. Jean Marc Barr's in The Big Blue. I would totally hissy fit for him.
Ryan Gosling. He would act totally cool and unrelentlessly understanding to my needing him that I would be forced to ruin his life.
Maybe it has actually happened but I couldn't admit to that..
Monty.
Jesse Bradford in "Bring It On." He's still hot today, but in "Bring It On" he was at the pinnacle of adorable perfection. Who wouldn't want to become a nicer cheerleader after brushing your teeth next to him?
Peter Dinklage. Seriously. (Though I certainly understand those who chose Farrell and Green, and Jake Gyllenhall would probably be on the short-short list along with Ian Parks.)
But all of those guys (and Dash Mihouk!) are just hot studs. Dinklage would probably not only give you some of the best sex ever, he'd capture your heart as well. (The last half hour of "The Station Agent"--oh my God.)
Matthias Schoenaerts. My revenge would start simple, I would prank call him pretending I'm Marion Cotillard. But then I would start believing I am actually her and I would try to kill him. Also, I would end up winning a second Oscar.
Jude Law!!
1960s Catherine Deneuve. Seamless, seductive beauty.
Marion Cotillard.
Damn that Guillaume Canet. Marion and Diane Kruger... The lucky dog.
But if we're going full psycho...
I'm thinking either Amanda Seyfried (in my age bracket) or Juliette Binoche (she looks like she'd use me and then dump me and she'd break me so much I'd never recover).
Jessica Rabbit - but what would I put in the pan?!
Tom Hardy because he has the eyes and the masculinity and the mouth (ok - and the body) to drive me mad even before he left - and you know he would - he'd walk right out after taking my heart and devouring it. OMG And 3rtful and joel6 need to stand back!!
Adam Driver. But oh the glory before the fall.
billy bill: I won't release Tom from my oral grip. You'll just have to settle for a less immaculate and masculine Brit.
Takeshi Kaneshiro--ah, Cupid's flying daggers
My husband, Jake Gyllenhaal.
Tom Cruise -
Scientologists will haunt me
Laura Harring (namely at the tail end of Mulholland Dr.), obvs.
And Angelina Jolie (circa Gia), Penelope Cruz (circa Vicky Christina Barcelona), and William Holden (circa Picnic) in a thruple, natch.
sad man -- i love that your revenge fantasy includes winning trophies. ha!
Catherine Deneuve, Michelle Pfeiffer, Jessica Lange- At any age. If I were so lucky now, I'd be pretty mad at myself. It would have to be my fault.
Lena Olin circa The Unbearable Likeness of Being **fans self**
Eva Green
Angelina Jolie
Anne Hathaway
And yes, the entire female cast of the love square in Vicky Cristina Barcelona immediately came up in my mind because I would definitely go crazy in those conditions.
I have other actress crushes but I feel like I'd be cool with them even after this fantasy wish fulfillment was over.
Henry Cavill or Matt Bomer.
At the moment, I'd say I'm about two new releases away from a one way torrid/doomed love affair with Léa Seydoux, and for once the movie gods seem to be on the same page as me. Bring on Blue Is The Warmest Color and Grand Central!
If I were going with the old standbys then definitely Marlon Brando, Elizabeth Taylor, and Marion Cotillard because I like 'em bold and beautiful. Michelle Pfeiffer because there's something about her smart lady sadness that I know would totally ruin me. And Paul Newman because of course Paul Newman.
Some days it is Amy Adams, some days it is Jennifer Lawrence.
Think I might be any kind of eager to see "American Hustle" when it comes out?
Hands down ,,,at any age
Natalie Wood
jude law, that irresistible cad.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Zooey as Sid Vicious won't have anything on me.
It depends entirely on the affair, of course, because if it was clear that it was just a short thing, I just don't think I could get worked up in an Alex Forrest-style RAGE over anyone.
That being said, I don't think I'd ever get over Montgomery Clift or Paul Newman. Or, these days, Michael Fassbender or Tom Hardy.
Everyone is taken already ;(
I'd go with Vincent Cassel.
LOL @ SadMan haha
ditto @ Jorge
I'd obviously have to go with ScarJo... at least I'd always have those photos she sent
Ryan Reynoldsme...MÉLANIE LAURENT.
I blame Beginners for this.
Peter O'Toole.
The young O'Toole was so sexy, idiosyncratic, witty and fun, that I would be quite besotted.
Then when I met him later and if he looked at me with cold disdain out of his icy blue eyes, as if we had never met, I can see me behaving quite out of character, in a most unpleasant way.
Alan Bates. But then again he's dead so that would be even more crazy..
