#Whoever has Paul's babies should know that it's a high honour to continue the Mescal bloodline.

#Of course Paul is terrific in bed. Y'all watched Normal People, Carmen and All of Us Strangers, right?

#I also am dubious on the hotel room trashing.

Some stuff about Paul in FM's new 'I Have Tea On...' thread. Funny how the same sort of things get brought up about him e.g. spin the bottle, crying after sex, ditching hookups, etc.

I do sorta believe the hotel comment though lol. Messy lad.

I have heard these rumors so much I can't help but believe them. He is a messy, sad boy. Although, I can't help but feel like we would have heard the smashing up hotels before though?

#tbh, I am head over heels for Hanno/Lucius.

#I mean, look at his thighs!

#paul mescal #he's so photogenic #biceps

#I just watched Gladiator II for a third time.

#Paul is unbelievably sexy in this film.

#I would volunteer to be his slave, and to worship his muscles, not necessarily in that order.

PAUL MESCAL Gladiator II (2024)

The coast was finally clear for me to watch my All Of Us Strangers DVD for the first time. I am now bawling my eyes out at this beautifully sad, masterpiece of a film. It's true what they said, that Andrew Scott gave the best performance of his career in this film. Paul Mescal, Claire Foy and Jamie Bell were also marvellous.

If Paul Mescal could play a character who is not terribly sad, and has had nothing bad ever happen to him, that would be much appreciated. Please and thank you. I love Paul, as he is a sensational actor and easy on the eyes, but he can't keep doing this to me, over and over again. 😭

Anyway, I'll be thinking about this film for a long time. Andrew Haigh can do no wrong.

Score: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#I like how 'Hannolucius' looks like 'Hannolicius'

#Hannolicius is my new favourite adjective

Paul, I heard that there's a line in the script, something along the lines of Lucius has become Maximus. I'd love for you to take me to the day on set when you had to sort of film that note. What that line meant to you when you read it and and how you convey something like that as an actor.

"You convey it through the brilliance of how Ridley works visually, like you can't obviously morph into somebody you're not, but what I think the line is implying is that he is ready to step into a leadership role. The whole journey for Lucius in the film was going from an individual to a reluctant leader, so when he puts on Maximus's armour, you see that he is ready to step into his bloodline, his legacy and to leader the gladiators around him."

"That line is symbolic and spiritual. And to play it is subjective. There's no one single way to skin that. A different actor would go a totally different way with it. But I think what the screenplay means by that is that Lucius is finally stepping into his responsibility as a leader of these men. It’s a moment where he shifts his perspective from himself onto the greater responsibility of what's happening to Rome. That's how I interpreted that line. Up until that point, Lucius has just been driven by revenge. But that’s when he changes."

#I would volunteer to scrub his back.

#Paul was sensational in this film (he's always sensational), and the major awards slept on his performance as Hanno/Lucius.

#He has a regal, Roman face - perfect casting.

#Also, Paul was the hottest I have ever seen him in this film.

#I will rewatch my Gladiator II DVD for sure.
