i like this because ben’s almost but not entirely wearing his sherlock face while accepting direction - like, the mouth is all sherlock, but there’s a softness to the his gaze that’s not sherlock.

he is an very interesting actor, in the plasticity of his features - daniel day lewis has the same quality, where he can act himself a different set of features if necessary. alec guinness. can’t really think of a fourth.

THIS!!!!

He’s in the zone. 

this is really weird, because before i read the above description my initial reaction to the gif was “who’s this guy, he’s dressed like sherlock but that isn’t him.”

ahhh amazing actorssss ilu

Frances Benjamin Johnston, Self Portrait (c. 1895)

“[Johnston] presents herself with beer mug in one hand, cigarette in the other, and skirt scandalously hiked up above the ankles. On one of her fingers are several rings from male suitors she had rejected.” (Martin W. Sandler, Against the Odds: Women  Pioneers in the First Hundred Years of Photography)

Badass of the day: Frances Benjamin (muthafuckin’) Johnston.

Arthur Conan Doyle was born on May 22, 1859, in Edinburgh, Scotland, to an English father of Irish descent and an Irish mother. Conan Doyle went on to create the world’s most famous literary detective, Sherlock Holmes, albeit hugely inspired by precursors such as Poe’s Auguste C. Dupin…

Holmes’ famous rationalist dictum: “When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”

lookin’ derpy yet dapper there, arthur /chinhands
