She was kinda obscure, then pretty mainstream (The English Patient), and now she's gone back to solid supporting roles and she's great in everything. She's in something right now I want to see, what is it - oh Slow Horses on Hulu.

Crap! Wikipedia (I wanted to figure out what I wanted to see her in right now) tells me she's a Roman Polanski supporter. Oh well. I was happier not knowing that.


Slow Horses was so much fun! (But FYI, I think it’s on AppleTV…) I went from underwhelmed by the idea to a complete fan and am about to start reading all the novels to get me through the withdrawal till Season 2 comes out. KST doesn’t get to do a ton acting-wise other than be competent, but she does a good job of it and looks fabulous in the process.

Actually, Eddie Remayne’s wife, Hannah Bagshawe. I don’t think that I’ve seen a more beautiful woman. I don’t know what she does but she’s been snapped without makeup so many times and she looks incredible. Don’t know how he was able to pull that bird.

Did you watch The Detour? We got through three seasons before we lost interest - but she was really good in it.


Benanti fans should look on YouTube for her many turns as Melania Trump on Colbert's show. She was incredibly funny. Colbert constantly struggled not to crack up when she was doing her thing.


Yes . . . wish they would bring her back (though not enough, obviously, to want the Big Fat Liar, Racist and Idiot to come back). Maybe Melania will testify before Jan. 6 committee?!!

Ooooh, I just thought of one - Jessie Buckley. She played the young Leda in the Lost Daughter, the young wife in Chernobyl, and a few other roles (I haven't seen "I'm thinking of ending things" yet). She was also in this BBC series The Last Post.

She was also an excellent Juliet in a modern setting of "Romeo and Juliet," which was filmed during the pandemic and aired on PBS. Pretty sure you can locate it via PBS Passport streaming or elsewhere, or on DVD etc. A very good, youthful, energetic production. Josh O'Connor was her Romeo. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13366258/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_8

I think Kyle Finnegan (Nats pitcher) is ridiculously handsome.


What about amateur athletes? I've always liked Scott Moir, the Canadian ice dancer.

She was in the last season of Fargo, too. I didn't like that season or I'm Thinking Of Ending Things but she's super talented. She has a horror movie coming out that we keep seeing previews for - it looks good.

Watching her in Segnora Volpe right now-- a fun show, so far.

Yes! She was amazing in “Cabaret” at the Playhouse in Londres. Very talented woman.

Harry Styles.

Just kidding. Although when his first solo album came out in 2017, while he wasn't obscure because of "the band," he initially booked small theaters for his first tour because he thought he couldn't attract enough people for bigger venues.

One of the best tv shows ever!

I was literally just coming here to say Tessa Virtue (although I like Scott too). I'm slightly obsessed with their story.
