Ewan McGregor I: Shallow Grave

This post is the first of a three-part series celebrating the beauty of Ewan McGregor and the variety of long hair styles that he's had over the years in his films.

But first, a couple of totally gratuitous pictures:




Unlike Johnny Depp, Ewan doesn't have one of those absolutely perfect faces - he's a bit rougher round the edges, and this makes him very sexy indeed. He always looks masculine somehow, even when he's wearing lipstick and a dress:



That scene is from Shallow Grave, a great British film directed by Danny Boyle, which I first saw when I was about 13. I'd never seen Ewan McGregor before, and I was instantly smitten. He was very young and his hair hardly counts as long, but it's definitely on the way.

There's something very sexy about the casual pose, ripped jeans, and cheeky grin in this picture. I like his big hands too.


Just about managing to look sexy, even in this terrible early-90s shirt-and-waistcoat combo.


He looks so young!


A bit pissed, a bit angry, a bit dishevelled: yes please.


Bless!


Come back soon for more exciting Ewan explorations - there's beards and bondage in the next one!
