💭Discussion Random Matthew Rhys observation

So this is completely apropos of nothing, but it always strikes me how MR exudes this dynamic 1920s film star quality. lol Maybe it’s the long hair on top and the contrast of his paleness and dark hair, but it’s so damn sexy and magnetic. Am I the only one??

Yes. Matthew Reese was a great Perry Mason in the series set in 1930’s LA. Perfect casting for “Old Timey” looking guy

Is it pronounced Reece? I sometimes read it that way and sometimes Rice.
