Just A Little Crush

My secret love affair with Ben Foster began way back when I was younger, like, 13 or so. He was in this amazing show called Flash Forward where he played the adorable Tucker. Since then, I've randomly seen him in other movies, always with the strange roles, but thats kinda why I like him so much. You can see him in Liberty Heights (which also has my other boyfriend Adrien Brody), where he's a Jewish teenager in the 50's. My favorite line from that movie is "You don't walk out on Sinatra, sir." And thats true, you don't walk out on Sinatra.

You can also see him in The Punisher (the one with Thomas Jane), Hostage (with Bruce Willis), 11:14 (totally awesome), Alpha Dog, X-Men: The Last Stand, 3:10 to Yuma, and the new movie Pandorum (which my husband is obsessed with right now).

But my most favorite movie starring Ben is Bang Bang Your Dead. Maybe because it came out (on Showtime, not in the theaters) just a year after I graduated high school, it hit me very hard when I saw it. Its intense and so so good. If you haven't seen it, you need to. Its based on a stage play written after several school shootings. You can get more info on it here.
