This Friday’s post has been reserved for a moment of pure fangirl delight.
A sulky, sexy 37-year old Ciarán Hinds as Frank Echlin in the film December Bride.

Stop the presses: with a little more help from my friends, I’ve traced this much-blogged GIF back to Duckodeathreturns who used it in a fine discussion of the film focusing on Peter Capaldi’s role as “Young Sorleyson.” Thank you for the GIF that keeps on giving!
Oooooh, love it 😍!
I can’t stop looking at it!
look and cheekbones 🙂 what’s not to like! and don’t they know just how to look at one so disparagingly to make it interesting? 😉
He’s so bratty and sullen 🙂 I want to go back in time and rob the cradle, LOL!
Niceeeeeeeeeee – and I watched that film, in Ireland, when it came out and remember it very clearly. I never knew that himself was in it…
I adore that film. It has this amazing feminist subtext that is much less apparent in the book (though the book is very good). And… Donal McCann!! Even Peter Capaldi is in it, though he has quite a tiny role.
Have to re-watch that! Peter Capaldi???? My daughter will be thrilled…
Well, it’s a tiny part. And he looks very young 🙂
Oh, I totally need to find a way to watch this movie now. Nice!
You won’t be disappointed 🙂
Interesting! 🙂
Yes, I really ought to write about this book and film. Both masterpieces IMO.
Ummmm….why hello 37 year old Mr H. 😁
Skinny youngfella 🙂
Whew. That is a rather dashing chunk of film footage that deserves repetition, Linnet. Good heavens that is a smokin’ hot glance full of meaning.
Where is my fan …
Smokin’ hot is right. I’ve never been much into animated GIFs but this one makes me think I need to learn a new skill 🙂
