mesmerising + endearing
______________________
…by far the most intriguing is Forrest (Tom Hardy), the Bondurant brothers’ notional leader, a bear-like man with a mesmerising gaze just below a tall, broad-rimmed hat….
The running joke about Forrest is that he’s indestructible, and Hardy portrays him with a subtle sense of fun. When he speaks at all, it’s indistinctly; mostly he emits low, animal grunts with meanings that require guesswork. He also favours a baggy, earth-toned cardigan: it’s ghastly, yet implausibly renders him even more endearing.
![The story is that [The Dark Knight Rises]—beefing up for it—immediately preceded Lawless, so Hardy is carrying a good deal more weight than might have been likely in dirt-poor Virginia in 1931. He is beefy, over-fed and sleepy, but somehow Hardy is good enough to turn these liabilities into sultry assets.](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_meexsxRxJ11qde7iyo1_500.jpg)
