For almost one year I was overdosed by Robert Pattinson. His perfect symmetrical face with the most beautiful blue – grayish eyes successfully captivated my mind and bundled my heart under his spell. But without notice, the amusement faded. It was probably because most of his news were only about how famous he was as Edward Cullen or probably because most of awards given to him were popular awards. I could not see any progress on his acting career. As a 38 years old woman, pretty face would not be enough to make me loyal to an actor. I pulled my self out of anything related to Twilight & Robert Pattinson for almost one month. Until in one ordinary day, without understandable reasons, I picked Prince Caspian and watched it again for the second time.  I couldn’t remember the exact reason why I chose to watch Prince Caspian, but I did remember my reaction when I watch that movie, the actor who played Caspian was extraordinary handsome and his accent was different. (I just found out later that it was Spanish accent =D).

Within the last few months too, I found my new habit, the unbearable curiosity.  It was the fervent basic of my journey to find more on the actor who played Prince Caspian, the captivating British actor, Ben Barnes, who was infamous in my country, Indonesia. At the beginning of my searching, I found bunch of amusing facts about Ben Barnes that almost similar with Robert Pattinson and enjoying my time to write blogs about them. I spent almost full of 3 days & nights to wrote 10 blogs. One of the craziest time in my life I guess ^_^

I was harvesting complaints from my friends over my flipping heart. One even commented that I was not loyal *_^  Well, don’t care much actually since for me loyalty only belongs to my faith and to my marriage, not to anything else including actors. So I continued my new passion, Ben Barnes.

It was not easy to follow Ben. I could find tonnes of his pictures, but I have to admit that Ben doesn’t have lots of thing to write about. He’s not fame hungry, barely has interviews, not “out there” getting media attention.  But the more I look at his pictures, the more of my curiosity was getting bolder. I am not on the stage of freaking crazy overdose stage (thank GOD for that), I am just OVERDOSE 😀 Therefore, I must write my reasons about flipping my heart to the strikingly – handsome – but – look – younger – than – his – age, Benjamin Thomas Barnes.

These are some of the the reasons of my flipping heart.

Even though he doesn’t look like the most wanted bad boy type and doesn’t have the perfect symmetrical jaw line with aristocrat-straight nose but he’s totally handsome.

And of course, he has the remarkable cleft chin which makes him even more alluring

Usually, most of British actors have a pair of beautiful blue or green eyes. But Ben, he captivated my heart because his eyes were different. He has a pair of the darkest eyes which some people called as “demon eyes” (in some ways, I could agree with that). But his eyes are special and unbearable enchanting. His eyes could pierce your brain and stop your heart beating.

I like guys with long & slender fingers. Probably, it was the distinguish quality of tall guy. Adding more fuel to my passion, Ben also has it. Not only having the long & slender pianist fingers, he himself also able to play piano. Well, again, I like guys who can play music instruments. Ben could play piano and drums. It was remarkably interesting. An opposite to each other. One is instrument of melody and the other one is instrument of rhythmic. That fact makes him more adorable ^_^

Ben has a dark brown straight hair. He has to grew it longer because he still in the production of the third film of Narnia,  The Voyage of the Dawn Treader where he took the role of King Caspian.  Do I mind with his long hair? Nope. He could cut his hair or let it grow, he still dazzles me.

What could be more interesting than to see a guy with great smile and beard tied his hair?  Attractive object for my eyes and mind.

I like tall guys. They caught my eyes easily.  And I think I have good taste on guys 😀 because Ben has the tall and athletic lean 6’.1” build, makes him looks good in any outfit.

I love to see his laughing pictures.  His laugh reaches his eyes. It makes the whole expressions are pure, fresh and lovable.

The most captivating of his appearance is his sexy contagious smile. It was very rare to see him without his smile. His smile completes his polite demeanor and makes him very endearing.

It was not enough to put only three pictures of his brilliant smile, but it would need more place to capture all of it. So, I dedicated one separate page for his heart-winning-brilliant-sexy-contagious smile ^_^

These are what I had in mind when I looked at his pictures. I write so I can share what I see through my heart, my personal point of view and my own analysis. To see pictures in bigger size or more pictures of Ben, you can visit Ben’ Gallery on the right side of this page.

only to please my eyes, my ear and my heart. the missing scene from Prince Caspian: Training Archers. Why I put this old scene? Because I love to hear his voice speaking in Spanish accent.

I might not one of the devoted fans or the fanatics, but about these two alluring British actors, I am curious about the future of their career. Because they’re both British, multi-talented, have the look that could captivate much attention and entering the world of fame through the same door, movie adaptation from novel. Not saying that I would have a chance to tell them my opinions personally, but this part is only my wish to their life and career.

I knew, this last part might piss some of Robert fans off. But I wrote this because I see things that according to my mature opinion, could impact Robert’s career in the future. My opinion here is sincere and came from pure heart. I do care about his career.

I am fully aware that, even though Robert started his acting career earlier than Ben, he was not that ready to be catapulted to a sudden fame after his role in Twilight. Rob was already very famous at age of 22, when Ben entered his fame at the age of 26 and not catapulted as bad as Rob. But I must admit too, by the age of 26, Ben was mature enough to manage his personal life and to face the crazy world of fame.

Ben admitted, though the role as strikingly handsome narcissist Dorian Gray was seriously hot, he hasn’t got it half as bad as poor old Robert Pattinson as drop-dead gorgeous Edward Cullen. Ben gets off pretty lightly.

After the catapulted stardom, Rob started to lose his personal life. I didn’t know was it because of his shy character or because he’s fed up with the situation, it was rare opportunity to see him laugh or smile during public appearance. While Ben, who was older and I believe more mature too, found no difficulties to laugh anytime a camera caught his expression. (Actually, it was difficult for me to find Ben’s picture without his smile during public appearances)

— Both pictures were taken on September 2009 —

My wish for Robert Pattinson, he could reach his maturity in time. It would be necessary to balance his professional and personal life. He will need all supports from his family and friends.

I have seen both of them smoking for their role in Little Ashes and Bigga than Ben, probably also for their role in other movies. But smoking was one of Rob’s habits that really made me worry. It was common to see Rob with his cigarette. To make it fair enough, I tried to dig more pictures of Ben off screen, but it seems like smoking was not his off-screen habits, or probably he’s good in hiding it ^_*. There were still possibilities in the next few days, I would see a picture of Ben Barnes smoking or even drunk at public area. Who knows 😀

Though I wrote once that Rob’s chiseled jaw line could make smoking and sipping beer look sexy, but combination of smoking and alcohol was not a good habits. It was a common knowledge that smoking and alcohol could ruin the beauty of your skin. Not to mentioned its impact to your health.

I don’t really know. Is it really because Ben lives healthier life than Rob, or because he has that “genes” to look younger than his age, but with 5 years of age difference, Ben looks almost as same age as Rob. Again, no offense, this is purely my personal opinion

Another wish for Robert Pattinson, he must quit his smoking habits to gain healthier life so he could stay longer and focus to his career.

I could not tell the length of time of their career or their captivating looks would be enough for their career or not. But for long-life acting career, they need more than just perfect good looks. Most of the Oscar winner actors like Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Sean Penn, don’t have “the amazingly stunning look”. But they’re high-class actors, the award-winning actors. Their names are guarantee to a quality movie. That make them exist till today.

My hope on Rob’s career remain the same. Rob is still 23 years old, still has long way to go. If he could manage to use his time properly, not letting all the fame go to his head, balancing his professional and personal life, carefully choose his roles, he could explore more. He could even achieve higher success and stay longer in this business.

Ben, although he is grateful for the career boost, was worried about becoming famous for his good looks and not his acting skills. I knew that Ben must also explore and carefully choose his role, so he can keep his career as long as possible. But I also knew that he’s more ready than Rob, he’s older, mature and more equipped by his acting background. If he kept his track like before, he could gain his ultimate career in the following years.

I wouldn’t know what will happen to both of these British multi-talented actors in the following months. I might be surprised by their news, but for now I would be happy to follow the news on their acting career and wish the best for them.

I write so I can share what I see through my heart, my personal point of view and my own analysisThank you for following my blogs and spent your time to read it.
