Love Me Some: Ryan Gosling

“For now, I’m just going to keep doing the work and hope I don’t get fired. If people want to put me up on their walls, I’ll love it.”

Ryan Thomas Gosling

12. November 1980

One Oscar nomination, 3 Golden Globe nominations

This man is perfection in so many ways. He not only rocks my boat in movies but he has done several awesome things in real life – stopped a fight between two people, saved a woman from getting hit by a taxi and I’m sure he has done several other good deeds. Plus, he looks so damn fine when ever he goes for grocery shopping or something. Though I have seen so many of his movies there are still couple of great films I haven’t yet watched – shame on me big time. Still, everybody should know his name and the fact that the guy can sing!

Favorite movies:

Drive, Blue Valentine, Crazy Stupid Love, The Notebook, Fracture

Notable performances:

Remember the Titans, Murder by Numbers

Haven’t seen yet (shame on me):

The Idles of March, All Good Things, Half Nelson, Lars and the Real Girl

As a proof of his very good singing skills, he was in the Mickey Mouse Club by the way, you could check out his song Youtube which happens to be one of my favorites. On an unrelated note, kind of, I like my men who can act and sing because Depp, Gosling and Gordon-Levitt are my top 3 and they all can hold a tune. Got to love men who can sing you a serenade while I can’t even hold a tune.

Since he looks so good, I’m really trying to keep my cool but I just can’t hold it together, I’ll add more images of him here just for the eye candy thing. There isn’t much eye candy on my blog so this should balance out the long reviews. Hopefully my female readers are thrilled with this feature and suggestions for Love Me Some are welcome as well. Though the long list of names I have in front of me can last me a long long time.
