Ben Barnes in Dorian Gray

Eternally Beautiful. Eternally Damned


Ben Barnes
Dorian Gray
Feature Film: 2009


I started crushing over English actor back in the late 2000's after seeing his beautiful face in the 2008 fantasy film, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.  The image above was one of the first images of Ben I featured on the site, the image below, one of the most recent. Anyone who watched Ben as Tim Jamieson in Stephen King's The Institute saw that although he has certainly aged, he's as beautiful and hot as ever.


I think it was Ben's 2009 turn in Dorian Gray that first introduced me to the character on film.  I'd known of the character, the story and Oscar Wilde's novel, but I don't remember seeing it on film prior to 2009.  Since then, I've caught several other versions.  Although the 2009 film for me was a bit 'tame', Ben certainly made a delicious Dorian.  It was also the first time we got a little skin from Ben on screen.
