Paul Bettany Interview

Last weekend, the Globe and Mail had an incredibly smart, funny profile of Paul Bettany.

I knew it was going to be good when the writer of the piece started by complaining that in spite of Legion's poster, Bettany hadn't bared his chest nearly enough in the actual movie. (He doesn't.) Then came this line from the man himself:

I don't think I could possibly love him more. *g*

For the visually-minded, here's the picture that accompanied the profile:
