The Adonis - Marble Smooth
So handsome and so in love , as we breathlessly wait the debut of Nowhere Boy in the London Film Festival and of course Kick Buns Next year , lets find out more about the blossoming of the Adonis , as Aaron spilled to 'The Times' newspaper on why he's keeping his shirt on , and his cosmic love for Nowhere Boys director , Sam Taylor Wood
The interview starts with well something that wouldn't be out of place on this very blog .
''In the flesh he is harrowingly handsome. Tanned biceps emerge from the sleeves of a green check shirt, while wisps of an early goatee cling to a face that is marble smooth and mostly conveys the epicene calm of a Greek Kouros. He even carries off a surprisingly retro haircut, Tears for Fears style, circa 1987 .'' ( I'd debate that , now if he'd gone for a David Sylvian circa Forbidden Love I' might agree )
On the never ending gossip on his relationship with Sam Taylor Wood
“There’s a lot of wonderful relationships out there with men and younger men,” he says, toying with the ring pull of his fizzy. “Look at Colin Firth and Nicholas Holt its a beautiful thing . Being older than me is no big deal. It’s different to how old you are in soul years.”
Quietly impassioned now, he begins, “And in the end, she’s the only one I can, er...” and then he suddenly stops himself because he knows, as we do, that we don’t need to know.
The Adonis Reflects ...
He says, for instance, that although he was grateful for the exposure gained from playing the hunky Robbie in Angus, Thongs, it pushed him in a dangerously vapid direction. “I was this sweet charming boy who was good to look at!” he says, with an Elvis-era snarl of disgust. “It drove me mad. Doing topless shots in photoshoots. It made me realise that I don’t want to go down that road. Because it’s a short road.”
Curses! but lets thank the maker that the wonderful photographer Kai Z Feng caught the Adonis when he did . Finally here's another look at the Adonis in character as the young John Lennon .
''Though many teardrops are bound to fall,
True love can conquer all,
When you're, when you're young and in love.''
