Men I Am Zany For #9... Nothing Wrong With The Late 40s

For the 9th installment of Men I Am Zany For, I offer three men in their late 40s that seem to me to be better than anytime in their careers. They are very talented & very worth considering for a moment or two. Well, now as I view them for this post, I feel anything but relaxed.

I first made note of George Clooney when he was a supporting player on the first season of Roseanne (1986). I thought he seemed kinda yummy, but I had no idea that he would become my generation's Cary Grant (besides writing, directing, producing, & palling around with Brad Pitt).

Remember Christian Bale as a child actor in Empire of the Sun (1987)? He grew up real nice, don't you think? Check out his subtle work in the underrated Laurel Canyon or so very sexy in Portlander Todd Haynes directed Velvet Goldmine.

I have never quite recovered from my first glimpse of sexy & talented Michael T. Weiss, crouched naked in a box in the first installment of The Pretender (1996). Catch him loooking super hot & being goofy in Jeffery.

Can any of these kids like Zack Efron or Shia Labeouf compare to these men?
