So, today Colin Firth was at the Berlinale, promoting his new movie Genius.
Where there were only a few pictures of Richard Armitage at the Berlinale, there are quite a few more of Colin Firth! And he was looking very dapper as well! A little more casual than Richard, in tutleneck, jeans and jacket… just have to share these:
I may be partial to 3 piece suits, but I am also partial to a nice (black) turtleneck! Have been trying to get my husband to wear one for 24 years now but alas, he will not oblige. Maybe it’s an Oedipus/Daddy issue, because in later years my dad used to wear turtlenecks a lot. Colin Firth wore a particularly nice one in the first Bridget Jones movie (I just loved that lavender/black combo):
And when he leans in to kiss her in her flat, all tall-dark-handsome-turtlenecked-and-black-coated, I just do not get how she is even able to resist him in that moment!
Luckily it all ends well in the snow…
Anyway, I digress…
I don’t know what it is with these suited and turtlenecked men – I just find them extremely appealing! Here, have another Berlinale-Colin:
And here is suited Colin with his wife Livia at a BAFTA gala last week in London, all dressed in eco-fashion (Livia is an eco-fashion pioneer/warrior/activist, with her own company called Eco-Age):
I just love this man and this couple. 🙂
What a gorgeous couple, indeed. And nice to be kept up-to-date with Colin Firth’s projects. It’s been a while since I last saw him in anything, I must check out this film. – Not sure whether I am a fan of those massive glasses he is wearing, but that’s a superficiality. I once attended a Q&A with him at the Dublin International Film Festival, and he blew everyone away with his dry, self-deprecating humour and his articulate answers.

Oh, I am officially jealous of you! 🙂 I would so love to see something like a Q&A with Colin Firth! Yes, I really like his sense of humour.
As for the glasses – they hide his eyes a bit but I do like them on him.

oh lovely! i missed them at the Baftas, need to check out the red carpet 🙂 Looking good and hey that is Jude Law!!! Equally nice looking too! The Berlinale seems a generally much more relaxed affair, nice change. It’s especially nice to see people in their normal clothes looking good 🙂

They weren’t at Sunday’s BAFTAs, apparently there was some sort of BAFTA dinner a few days before.

Der schwarze Rollkragenpulli steht ihm wirklich gut. Gibt es schon Kritiken zu dem neuen Film?

I love the pics and the turtle-necked Colin Firth! And I’ve always loved the way he responds in interviews! So British – and, with advancing age, if I may say so, his look becomes more and more “Brit” imo! 🙂
