Is Harris Dickinson the most ethereally beautiful actor?

I really hope someone has the brilliance to cast this man in a defining cinematic production of The Picture of Dorian Grey within the next few years. And, make it even gayer than it needs to be. Does James Ivory have another film in him?

I just did a Google image search for him and while there were a few pictures where he looked slightly better than in OP's photo there was nothing I thought was an outstanding display of beauty. He is a decent looking guy and pretty much my type but he isn't something special. I haven't seen him in anything and I believe his slightly above average looks might serve him well as an actor, not being extortionately beautiful will mean people might take him more serious as an actor if he has any acting chops at all.

He was idealized as a gay dream in Beach Rats - but that was largely youth and cinematography. He’s good looking but I find it varies dramatically between pictures. Probably a great looking guy in person - but not sure if it’s his height or his changing looks as he ages, he looks average good to stunningly great in pictures.

I like him. For looks I'll give him a 7 for face and 8.5 for body. The bridge of his nose is way too thin and his face would be dramatically more masculine and attractive if he built UP his nose a bit. When he closes his mouth, his lips and chin a sort of pinched and pursed look. He looks more charming when his lips are parted, or with a big smile.

Of course DL's resident geriatrics with Cheeto-stained fingers would attack a hot Brit with a perfect swimmer's physique. Some things never change!

Just FYI, the physique in question is showcased the most on "Trust," the FX miniseries in which Dickinson played the teenaged Getty heir kidnapped back in the '70s. (Basically the same plot as "All the Money in the World," the Getty biopic that originally had teen-diddler Kevin Spacey as the patriarch, but they refilmed all of his scenes using Christopher Plummer after all the Anthony Rapp shit hit the fan.)

At first I thought it had to be a Ryan Murphy show, given the degree to which it happily sexualizes underage male characters, but apparently not. Harris is shirtless for a lot of it and also in his underwear, though he's admittedly playing an obnoxious trust-fund brat with a terrible '70s-style shaggy perm. It's worth a watch, though, and I think it's still on Hulu.

Sure, if you didn't look too closely at his severely acne-pitted face. (Pun truly not intended, but thankfully he's gotten enough chemical peels at this point to be free of it.) What the fuck does this have to do with anything circa 2022, when Brad's pushing 60 and in no way "ethereal"? (Also, the ranks of ethereal men in their 20s dates back millennia, not just the '90s. Brad's merely one among hundreds of thousands over the centuries, albeit obviously much better-known than the others.)

[quote]He has a (low) rent boy face from the poorer side of a whitebread town.

He grew up in a middle-class London suburb, and nowadays London's an even larger melting pot than NYC, so "whitebread" is a considerable stretch. (DL geriatrics dismissing incredibly hot young men as having "(low) rent boy faces," however, is no stretch at all. It was as just tedious 20 years ago as it is today.)

by Anonymousreply 98October 24, 2022 10:09 PM

I’m glad this thread keeps getting revisited, but it’s interesting that most people completely missed my point in calling him ethereal. Being ethereal has nothing to do with traditional attractiveness, nor masculine beauty, it’s an otherworldliness, undefinable quality. Ideals of ethereal beauty in females to me are Tilda Swinton and Cate Blanchett, neither of who, are traditionally pretty, nor the ideal of feminine beauty. He could easily be the child of either of them and it’s that unique quality that they have that makes them so stunning and mesmerizing to watch on the screen. It also always them to change and inhabit roles in the way other don’t, who always seem to just be themselves dressed up. No, he’s not the current concept of the pretty boy, I guess presently represented by Harry Styles, nor the masculine ideal of someone like Owen Warner.

Harris reminds me of Andrea Riseborough for some reason. He is one of the most exciting young actors around, I wonder if he will become a star or if he will remain a hidden gem like Riseborough. He is quietly bulding a very nice resume, working with auteurs like Eliza Hittman, Joanna Hogg, Sean Durkin, Xavier Dolan, Ruben Ostlund, Brit Marling and also doing commercial stuff like Crawdads and The Kings Man. Harris, George Mackay and Margaret Qualley are the most interesting and exciting actors born in the 90s imo.

Seriously? While there may be *some* degree of difference in hotness levels based on one's sexual orientation, I think Harris Dickinson – who is LITERALLY playing a male model in this film, and a believable one at that – would have little difficulty attracting nearly anyone he wants.

Sadly, this doesn't include his increasingly large DL eldergay fanbase.

[quote]I genuinely did not know it was the same actor in a lot of his films until recently.

Yes it is genuinely a pleasant surprise to thoroughly enjoy three performances and not even realize it is the same actor in all three. Maybe because I viewed them so spread out over time. But Harris was very good in TRUST, the first thing that I saw him in about five years ago. Then about two years ago I saw Beach Rats on Netflix and thought the actor did an amazing job portraying the part of a closeted young thuggish guy. And then when I was watching Triangle of Sadness and looked up his IMDB I realized it was him in all three movies. I would say he is more mercurial in that he can shape shift and disappear into characters. He is indeed talented and I am looking forward to seeing what he does in the future.

SPOILER ALERT: Side note, it was kind of shocking how jealous I was of Abigail and their little lifeboat survival situation. I was almost mad at her that she was using her power in much the same I probably would have used it.
