Saturday Swoon-Christopher Plummer

I Love Christopher Plummer. So I think we should take a moment an this sunny Saturday to swoon over him. Anybody who knows me knows my crazy obsession with the sound of music, more on that later, but one of the main reasons I love the movie so much is because of Captain Von Trapp. He starts out all gruff and mysterious, his eyes full of sadness but because of the love of a good women he reveals his sensitive and loving side that was buried, not very deeply it must be said, under the surface. Romantic or what?

The tall, dark, and handsome Canadian with his exotically indeterminable accent is certainly most famous for his role as the dashing Captain Von Trapp, a role he never relished, he started out as a Shakespearean theater actor and has starred in over 70 films. He has been experiencing a re birth of his career in the last decade. He won his first Oscar in 2012 for the film 'Beginners' becoming, at 82, the oldest person ever to win the award.

Isn't he fabulously elegant? I think so, he has aged so gracefully as well, he still has the twinkle in his eye. oh and he was the narrator of Madeleine, the cartoon of the little french school girl. He is the epitome of chic sophistication and that never goes out of style.

what a hunk!!

I absolutely love his voice, and I adored this cartoon as a kid.
