Frank Churchill's hair!!?!?!


Oh my!! What was the deal with Frank Churchill's hair? It looked so terrible, I didn't even recognize Ewan McGregor! I had no clue it was him until I was reading these boards. I can't believe he looked so ugly! LOL

I read somewhere he had to wear wig at the time cos he was shooting this film straightway after 'trainspotting'.

Yeah, that's my theory. Ewan has much, much nicer hair than that, but he had shaved his head for Trainspotting.

In vino veritas.

but they could have given him a less scarecrow-like head of wig, i think, even if he had a shaved head at the time. i think they were attempting to go for the byron look, which was pop. at the time. to see how a modern adaption with byron hair should look, check out toby stephens in jane eyre, lucious long curly locks (i wish i had pretty curls like that!) but sassy at the same time

I just watched Emma and I couldn't believe Ewan's hair!! lol It had to be a wig because Ewan has much better hair than that.
