Cillian Murphy’s eyes. AIBU to be mesmerised.

[CillianMurphysEyes]

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 😅

Ah but as Amber A'Lee put it - ' Irish men are hot but it doesn't last. They go to bed as Cillian Murphy and wake up as Steve Bannon'. 😂

Cillian looks after himself mind.

Note taken 😉

That sounded creepy, I’m not a stalker! 😆

Lol. The shade!

They don't look after their fair complexions and the ruddiness takes over.

Can't see that happening to Mr Cillian though.

No indeed. And his bone structure is good. Black hair and blue eyes are ninepence a dozen in Ireland. Not much use if the rest of you is a Guinness addled hulk. Although they too have their admirers?

OMG stop this mythologising and fetishising of Ireland, people don't look like Cillian there any more than the average Englishman is Henry Cavill. Dark hair and light eyes is hardly an unusual combo, see Rufus Sewell.

I don't understand the appeal? I think he looks like a serial killer. His eyes are scary.

Sorry..

He is v striking tho isn't he? Unusual bone structure and piercing eyes. None of which is particular to Ireland though of course.

You know many serial killers? Or just stereotypes?

YABU making a creepy thread about him like a love struck teenager IMO 😂🤢

(and FWIW outside of peaky blinders where the haircut suits him… find him a bit grubby looking)

Awwww don't rain on OPs parade, she luffs him 😁

God leave @CillianMurphysEyes alone with her fantasies you fun sponges!

I don't get the attraction at all, he has all the charm of a dead fish.

Ok I’m sorry 😂 OP I owe you a big fluffy pen to decorate his name in love hearts

Thank you! 💃🏼❤️😉

Dark hair and blue eyes is a classically Irish look though. Along with redheads. Blondies are defo less common here compared to England. Its nothing to do with mythology or romanticism. Some genetic fluke that's all.

🤣 Thanks JJ! 🫶

I’m ashamed to admit that I haven’t seen Peaky Blinders. Think I need to get into it for Cillian gazing! He is so attractive.

Peaky Blinders is AWESOME! You won’t be disappointed.

my dad has eyes just like cillians. my dad is of irish heritage from both his grandparents. my sons have inherited the same eyes. none of the women in our family have though.

I heard it was v violent. I'm 'of a nervous disposition' myself so avoided it.

I watched the first series of Peaky Blinders and thought it was fine. Didn't bother watching any of the subsequent series though.

Yeah, I’m not seeing this, either. It’s a tourist myth. I was in Sligo with a friend years ago, and the visiting Americans (we were at the Yeats summer school) were all over my dark-haired, blue-eyed friend with her ‘gorgeous Irish looks’.

Except I was the Irish one (ordinary-looking, brown-haired, greyish-blue eyes). She was from Scunthorpe, with no Irish ancestry whatsoever that she knew of.

CM stands out as unusual-looking in Ireland, too. In the flesh the main thing that comes across is that he’s very slight and very pale-skinned. With giant, pale eyes. More Gollum than sexpot, to be honest, if that doesn’t sound bitchy…? Excellent skin, though.

The other thing you’d notice is that thing nearly all actors have — a kind of way of holding themselves?
