It’s a quiet evening here, DH is away, DS is gaming.

Cillian Murphy reels are popping up on SM posts

AIBU to be totally mesmerised every time I watch a reel/photo of him. His eyes are so beautiful 😍 they are such a stunning colour too and he has deep sockets which seem to emphasise their beauty!

I have heavy hooded (not because I’m old, I am old but they’ve always been this way) hazel eyes and I’m totally envious of his features!

This is a lighthearted thread 💃🏼 Go and check out a few Cillian images 😅

Oh God no, he looks totally plastic and his lips are bloodless. Both he and Eddie Redmayne look like they'd have a smooth bump for a groin area, like a Ken doll. Totally asexual.

Ryan Gosling = Canadian Nicholas Lyndhurst 😂. There is a film he's in with Steve Carrell and Emma Stone (I think!). He's just sex on legs in that.

Black hair + blue eyes is my favourite combination but I'm thinking more Jason Isaacs, a young Jason Patric in The Lost Boys, Pierce Brosnan and so on...not CM.

RedToothBrush · 20/08/2023 13:40

I have found my people.

However you will have to fight me for him.

I find him so creepy looking!

I can never decide whether he looks extremely creepy or extremely beautiful.

Perhaps both can be true?

JudgeAnderson · 20/08/2023 13:43

@IcedPurple that's kind of where I am. Also please don't pillory me but I don't think he's got the kind of looks that age that well. Unlike my newfound admiration for Alan Ruck who looks way better with a bit of mileage on him.

So I’m still moving! 😆

And you would be most welcome 😊.

I certainly won't pillory you! I agree that his kind of 'delicate' features don't age well.

Surely there's plenty of people of Irish descent in the UK with similar features? But far be it from me to deny anyone a céad míle fáilte to come and gawp at Irish men Grin

I find him fascinating as well although my usual type is big manly types.

Is it true he had a fling with Sienna miller on a film they did and that’s why his wife moved them back to Ireland?

Cillian would probably be the last actor I could imagine having an affair. But I guess anyone is capable of infidelity.

I don't buy that story however. If Cillian were mindful to have an affair, I expect there'd be a few willing ladies in Ireland too.

I LOVE THIS! ‘a hundred thousand welcomes 😍’ (I googled 😆) makes me even more determined!

Also, there may be people of Irish descent over here but the eyes mixed with the Irish accent is just 😍

Genuinely beautiful to look at

What is it exactly about the accent? I'm Irish, and i've never felt the benefit of it? (Am feeling a bit existential atm, soz)

It’s beautiful, warm, friendly and charismatic. It has a pure charm about it. Makes you sit up and listen.

My Dad was Scottish and never lost his accent when we moved across the border, it’s a close second but the Irish accent wins hands ☘️

I LOVE the scottish accent! It's the best. Great country all round tbh.

Should have read ‘when he moved across the border’!

I love Scotland too and it will always be special to me. Not long after he died I visited where my DF grew up. Stunning area.

Somewhat less stunning but Burger King in Waverley Station. Edinburgh was absolutely gorgeous, really lovely. I've been back a few times and it was still lovely. I'm a proper fangirl apparently! Christ, i'm totally waffling now. Sorry.

JamieFrasersfurrysporran · 20/08/2023 15:48

He's mine

JustACountryMusicGirlInCowboyBoots · 20/08/2023 16:00

He's got eyes like my dad, my son, and me. Just look like blue eyes to me🤷🏼‍♀️

MotherofGorgons · 20/08/2023 16:02

Irish eyes put in with a smutty finger is the way Christie described it, I think.

Fartooold · 20/08/2023 16:05

I'm fascinated by his face rather than attracted by it - I think he would make a striking woman😳

CoachBeardsJane · 20/08/2023 16:16

Christopher Nolan was equally as mesmerised with his eyes in Batman begins and kept finding reasons for him to remove his glasses!

He does make a striking woman.

Cillian Murphy’s eyes.  AIBU to be mesmerised.
MotherofGorgons · 20/08/2023 16:21

No disrespect to Matt Damon, but when watching Oppenheimer, I couldn't help thinking what a potato he looked like next to Cillian and his razor sharp cheekbones.😐

See? Bloody gorgeous🥰 and I'm straight 🤣
