This is about a poll in my bilingual blog at http://celinejulie.blogspot.com
POLL 42: EVIL HAS A HANDSOME FACE
My poll 42 is inspired by Abhisit Vejjajiva, the new prime minister of Thailand, though I don’t say that he is evil. He just inspires me to make this poll.
I don’t particularly hate Abhisit, but I do particularly hate his Democrat Party. I voted for this party last year, because at that time I hated Samak Sundaravej from the rival party very much. What a difference a year makes!
During the course of the year, I have been watching in horror how Abhisit’s Democrat party supports the Thai fascist group called PAD and supports the use of some laws which are totally against freedom of speech. Now Abhisit’s Democrat Party has become one of the things I hate the most in the world.
Let’s wait and see if Abhisit will destroy our freedom and become Hitler or not. If not, maybe I will change my mind to like him next year.

You can cast multiple votes.
Any recommendations for handsome villains are welcome. 
This is my reply to Initial A in my bilingual blog:

I’m very glad you like Ralph Fiennes in SCHINDLER’S LIST. I was crazy for him after I saw that film. But what is strange is that I never find Ralph Fiennes as seductive as in SCHINDLER’S LIST again. I think he looks the best in SCHINDLER’S LIST, and looks good in THE BABY OF MACON (1993, Peter Greenaway, A+) and in STRANGE DAYS (1995, A+), but I don’t find him very attractive in QUIZ SHOW, THE ENGLISH PATIENT, and many films after that. He is a bit attractive, but not “very” attractive for me now.

You failed to feature Eduardo Noriega ”Espinazo del Diablo” and ”Tesis.”
Comment by Bloke Chap — July 7, 2009 @ 11:15 pm
Yes, that’s right. Eduardo Noriega is so gorgeous in THESIS (A+). How could I forget him? I haven’t seen THE DEVIL’S BACKBONE yet.
