I've always had a soft spot for Jim
Caviezel. Mainly because he has the face of a suffering Christ,
sensitive, beautiful, intense. No doubt the reason he was chosen to
play ol' JC in The Passion of the Christ, Mel Gibson's first foray
into the engrossing chaos that is his mind. The story about Jim being
struck by lighting on the cross when they were shooting in bad
weather was one of the best I'd heard in film anecdotes. But I
digress.
He is now playing Mr Reese in Person
of Interest on Star World and I really think he's edible in the
role. He's tall, well-built, has thick, salt-and-pepper hair cropped
short, and wears perfectly-cut, dark suits with open white shirts and
impeccable black shoes that look Italian. He speaks in a compelling
whisper which is not irritating, (unlike Kiefer Sutherland in 24
and now the entirely forgettable series Touch). He is
protective, loyal and has scruples. One look from his icy blue eyes
and violent individuals have been known to stop short as though hit
by a brick wall.
Good grief. Is he the perfect man or
what.
