I know that Susan knows that I 'LOVE' the dimples. I've told her enough times. Anyway, if he had been around me (ha..like that ever would have happened..oh well, I can dream, right?) he would have had black and blue cheeks because I'd be 'pinching' them all the time!!
And then, of course, the eyes...never forget the eyes. Actually, there wasn't anything about his whole face that I didn't like.
His voice was very distinctive and could be very soft and soothing. I think that's why I like 'Obsession' so much. Even though the character was evil, he spoke so calmly and softly throughout the whole movie that, I think the first time I watched it, I sat like I was in a trance just looking and listening.
As for the nudge with the back of the hand, I will have to do a Sunday afternoon matinee of his movies and take a look. Of course, the most obvious one was in JI and what made it so endearing was that he did it to a woman..like he was nudging a buddy or a crew member. Other than JI,I think he probably did it most as LJS, but I'll be looking.
So choices in order: Dimples, eyes (or even whole face), voice
I'll be back about the arm whack!
Oh, and while we are collecting mannerisms what about the way that he can grab someone (actually a man, thank goodness!)by a tie or scarf around the neck and pull them toward him to 'get a point accross'. But watch when he does that because as he grabs he always 'twists' the collar, tie or scarf and rams his hand into the person's throat and gives him a shove, while he is spouting whatever he has to say. A good one to watch is when he grabs Shell in 'Odd Man Out'. It's a wonder the poor man didn't strangle. I know it was a movie and I'm sure that RN didn't really do it has hard as it looked but he was really good at that move because it looked real. But he does it in quite a few of his movies. Take notice.
