Yes, exactly. He was brilliant and specialised in deeply unpleasant characters. We were meant to find him creepy and loathsome.
I assumed the OP was talking about the kind of more conventionally attractive type who gets cast as romantic leads or action heroes?
I find George Clooney kind of icky in a clichéd kind of way — I think it’s the big, brown bedroom eyes. Though I like him in comic roles.
I’ve always found Leonardo di Caprio repugnant — he looked like a small boy in Titanic, then transmogrified into Mr Potato Head.
Colin Firth looks constipated and vaguely gammony. I can’t buy Ralph Fiennes as a romantic lead at all. (Which meant The English Patient didn’t work for me on any level. I would genuinely have shagged Kevin Whately over the other men, including Naveen Andrew’s.)
Daniel Craig is a bit weird-looking, and Benedict Cumberbatch is very, very weird-looking. Cillian Murphy, while a brilliant actor, is too Gollum-y for me.
I’m clearly difficult to please.
