So instead, this one will be about Liam Neeson and Alfred Kinsey. I recently saw Kinsey and it was one of the worst films I have ever seen. But aren't the Hollywood actors who play in biopics always much sexier than the people they play? Yes. And this is no exception. There is only one exception--Anthony Hopkins in the film Nixon. Am I the only one who cannot think of dour, balding crooks opening relations with China without having a spontaneous, highly embarrassing orgasm in public?
It was November. The wind was blowing just so. We were having a lesson in my tenth grade history class about the Vietnam war, when my teacher began to say, "you know, Nixon was not that bad a president." Suddenly, I felt all the elastic in my body turn to instantly hot coal with a loud snap. I was at rapt attention. He put on a video of Nixon delivering the "Checkers Speech." The blubbery moon of his face rotated ever so slightly and caused a massive tidal undulation that traveled up and down my spine. And then, I saw him shaking hands with Chairman Mao and it was as if SuperSoaker had made a shotgun in a secret factory in my pants and decided to test it at a hideously inappropriate time. I couldn't speak to anyone in my high school ever again.
So yeah, obviously Liam Neeson
