Fingers Friday

How Henry's fingers move here, how he grips with both hands, and how Alex looks at them before looking back up at Henry. How Henry shares his strength, joy and love through hand-holding. Pianist fingers that play out his emotions on Alex's skin, the rhythm taking hold, zinging up through Alex's blood and beating within his heart.

‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ Review: A Royally Important Rom-Com

Rom-Coms have been a staple in the Kitson household for as long as I can remember. There was nothing like a Saturday with my mother and sisters, with a big bowl of popcorn and a long list of movies where the stars fall in love in some of the silliest situations ever. They weren’t always good, but there was something magical and unique about each one. But growing up, all these films had one thing…

Fingers Friday

So, I was gonna zoom in on Alex's fingers. Since that's the point of this post. I could not cut any bit of this shot, though. It would be a disservice to everyone. When he puts his fingers in his hair, it fucking soothes me. At the same time, I find it one of the hottest things Alex Claremont-Diaz does. I don't know if this is a Taylor acting choice. It feels like it is. Either way, it's so perfect. It happens more than once, but this time, it's the fingers of both hands, which are so gorgeous. I really love his hands and those long fingers.
