There were many hot men on Showtimes recent airing of the series Penny Dreadful: City of Angels. Daniel Zovatto and Johnathan Nieves are both beautiful, but there was another talented actor who caught my eye. Actor Rory Kinnear appeared in the first Penny Dreadful, and even made up as 'the creature', there was something erotically appealing about him.
It was in his movements, in mannerisms, and especially in his eyes. There wasn't much appealing about Kinnear's character Peter Craft, but Kinnear, as he did with 'the creature', managed to convey a humanity, a damaged character you were drawn to despite his cruelty and flaws.

Some may remember that I featured the 1970's film adaption of the D. H. Lawrence novel sevearal years ago. (Wrestlemania)Fans of the male form know the film was as known for his nude male wresting scene as it was for Lawrence's beautiful dialogue.turned into British drama. In the 1970 film version, it was actors Alan Bates and Oliver Reed rolling around naked in front of a huge fireplace.
I wasn't as aware, of the 2011 adaption of the story in the form of a BBC Mini-Series. In this version, it was Kinnear and actor Joseph Mawle wrestling naked, in this version, on a beach. Setting it on a beach made the nude wrestling a little more natural I suppose. I was impressed that even the television re-make featured full nudity from both it's leading men.

As the creature, he reminded me of Rosie ODonnell. But I do agree with your assessment of him. Not a bad looking guy.
