...his name is hugh dancy. he starred opposite jesssica alba in 2003's sleeping dictionary, a movie that i have no inkling about until i spied it on the shelf of astrovision when sis and myself did our christmas shopping last sunday. it was about a love story between a young colonial official and a mullato sleeping dictionary (a monicker for a local woman assigned to teach the foreigner the language - among othr wifely duties) in sarawak (credits said the movie was partly filmed in malaysia.
hugh fit perfectly in the role of an idealistic officer who expected to do something great, i.e., transform or civilize the "savage" land that his predecessors has discovered.
he was also endearing in his portrayal of a man untrained in the art of lovemaking (he was 28 at the time - dob: June 1975).
as the story goes, falling in love with the sleeping dictionary was taboo. but he couldn't help himself.

his courage in showing defiance against the discriminating protocol of his kind tugged at the heart of the romantics...eliciting a sigh here and there. it sent a clear message of hope..which is my eternal mantra...hihihihi
