Last night I was home sick (plus I have started boycotting Saturday nights in New York due to lack of cabs and overall dbaggyness) and needed a distraction. So I mosied on over to the On Demand channel and ordered myself up some "Going The Distance." Who knew, however, that I would also be getting--along with an entirely charming and witty romantic comedy--the one Oliver Jackson-Cohen (yes, that tall drink of water standing next to Drew Barrymore in a photo from I'm guessing one of the film's premieres). EXCUSE ME but where the hell has this guy been all of my life? Well, for approx 6 years of it, looks like he wasn't even born, but that's a minor detail. Minor detail! And did I mention he's English? We're talking tall (I have seen Drew Barrymore in person and if she's wearing monster heels and standing next to him and he's still significantly taller, this guy is at least 6'2") with a British accent. I'll humor you with another shot of OJC just for kicks:
He plays the tragically underused role of a random bartender in the movie, but every single time he popped up on screen I was like, oh excuse me HELLO. Pause. Rewind! And my sister is reading this right now, shaking her head and going, "Of course she likes that guy. Of course she does."
