Kiss me. Can't here. A present from me (and K) to you

Many many moons ago, [livejournal.com profile] kattiya told me of a legend. The legend of James Dean and Paul Newman. Yes, pause. Breathe. The story goes that Paul Newman and James Dean did a screen test years ago for East of Eden, which you know, is a lot of hotass in one place, but the money shot being that they were involved. I was understandably dubious. And then I saw the clip below.

Whether the shenanigans went down before, during or after this test I'll let you judge, but let me tell you, I can't even call this UST. I know couples that don't ignite like this. In fact, let's call it, as [livejournal.com profile] kattiya says, "There is stuff happening." You cannot listen to Paul's nervous laugh, see the way he looks at Jimmy, or the way they mention *kissing* and call this straight.

The only straight thing here is the camera angle. Enjoy, babies.


There's a better version of the second half


So. Where is the slash for this? C'mon folks.

Whoa Nelly!

This is... pretty damn hot. Oh, old skool Paul Newman, you were such a total hottie...

Best video EVER! Thank you so much for sharing!

Ohhh, yeah, definitely setting of slash alarms. Just the way they're looking at each other and the nervous laugh.

Heh, I saw that earlier this year linked from someone on my flist, and my immediate thought was how long before Yuletide has "classic" RPS?

YES PLEASE.

wow! what a find. I just watched this 5 times and I'm sure gonna watch it some more. this reminds me that I've always thought it would be great to see Ben McKenzie play Paul Newman"s part for Cat on a Hot Tim Roof. Thanks!

Fun and sexy and nervous and sweet but I've got to stop watching this little clip.

Ha, I've had this favorited for a long time. I got back to it on rainy Sundays. ♥ ♥ I have unhealthy admiration for James Dean so yeah, I've been a fan of this slashiness for a while.

oh, that is awesome!

They're so cute and somehow shy...hot! Paul Newman's eyes make me swoon anytime anyway.

Thannks so much! I bookmarked it to be able to enjoy it often from now on.

Meow.

Wow. Even without the direct reference to kissing, that screentest has such amazing sexual tension. Thanks so much for posting it!

THANK YOU FOR THAT LINK.

Yep, there is stuff happening...

A day early

Just wanted to stop lurking long enough to drop by to wish you a Happy Birthday!

(And a Happy Thanksgiving Day while I'm here ♥)

Dude, you have probably seen this, but have you seen this?!:

Alexander is having a meeting with the agency Endeavor, founded by, among others, Ari Emanuel - who Ari Gold's character in Entourage is based upon. (http://community.livejournal.com/alex_skarsgard/131917.html#cutid1)

Damn, now I want Ari meeting with Brad/Alex/Okay I admit it: they are both one in my mind, and being all hilariously snarky and generally Ari-ish and calling Stark/Nate Brad's girlfriend a la your Kingdom of the Blaggers and then Nate being all badass about it and Brad being all amused at seeing Ari, High Ruler of Hollywood up against Nate's Glare of Doom and then later at home Nate's like 'it's okay, I am your girlfriend really' but in that sweet, mischievous, non-emasculating way he has down so well and Brad's all 'we need to have sex NOW.'

... Okay so I just descended into calling them Brad and Nate. I clearly believe in just one version of reality.

Also, a very Happy Birthday for tomorrow! :)

so, aside from everything everyone else has already mentioned, what the hell was up with the guy behind the camera asking him/them about girls being into them? just adds another layer of holy crap to the whole thing!

Off topic, but Happy Birthday! :)
