YAHOO answers reference Question ( x ):
What does the phrase "easy on the eyes" mean exactly?
Heat seeking missile asked 7 years ago
Answers:
-- Nice to look at. You know, 'eye candy' 
Example: Johnny Depp, Billie Joe Armstrong, Gerard Way
-- IT MEANS IS NOT THAT UGLY
- pretty, pleasant looking...
-- Looks good. handsome, pretty, etc.
-- Good looking. Like, if someone was ugly they'd be hard to look at, hard on the eyes. But if they're attractive they're easy on the eyes meaning it doesn't hurt or bother you to look at them.
-- You know, that you enjoy looking at what or who ever it is. Do you know what "money shot" means? I'd reconsider.
-- Physically attractive.
-- pretty or handsome
-- It doesn't 'hurt' your eyes to look - so someone who is good looking
-- Anything that's pleasant to look at. Doesn't have to be a person. Anything.
-- do-able
-- it means that ur really hot or really pretty
-- it means whoever said it to u thinks u are nice to look @....so its a big complement they r saying u r pretty.
-- adorable and attractive.....
-- Like when i think about it My eyes lower about half way and it seems like the eyes are relaxing and maybe 

thats why its called EASY on the eyes

On Tuesday 3 December Eddie Redmayne will participate in an intimate ‘Academy Circle’ event, hosted by Hong Kong actress and presenter Lisa S, at The Peninsula Hong Kong for local supporters of BAFTA’s mission in Asia. The following day, Wednesday 4 December, he will participate in an acting masterclass with students at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts.
This is why he cancelled his participation in the Rainbow Trust Carol Concert.
Eddie spends a few days in Hong Kong, so he can meet his brother James, who currently lives there.

BAFTA identifies, nurtures and supports the next generation of talent through its year-round programme of learning events, alongside its internationally-renowned annual award ceremonies celebrating excellence in film, television and games. The learning programme includes masterclasses, lectures with established practitioners, ‘new talent’ initiatives and over 250 events across the UK and the USA giving the public access to a wealth of knowledge and advice. Alongside an extensive collection of online resources on BAFTA Guru, BAFTA’s online learning channel, the organisation has in recent years created one of the most developed and highly-regarded learning programmes for film, television and games in the world.

Artworks about Eddie

I found the making of video of the first picture on GOOGLE and I decided to make a post about artworks depicting Eddie. I selected a few, that I like. Most of the pictures are from the deviantART website. The creators are mostly
young artists, students and Eddie's fans.

Video: The making of... Eddie Redmayne


Redmayne by Lauren (tuxedos)
tuxedos: Quick painting of Eddie Redmayne to test out cs5. I got a new computer and my old program doesn't work on it so here's just a big sloppy mess as I was trying to see which brushes were nice and I actually messed with one and made it fairly similar to the one in elements 4.0. Meh. How do lip

Sloppy bleh by Lauren (tuxedos)
tuxedos: Still drawing Eddie Redmayne. He's such a great person. Well uh I kind of just gave up on this halfway through finishing it and so it's really um blotchy and I hardly touched his hair so it's all stringy and sad. Oh well. How the freaking heck do you draw swords it is literally impossible to draw straight lines. /sob

My friends, my friends by Emmi Li Lindberg (VikingSoup)
VikingSoup: don’t ask me what your sacrifice was for
The glorious Eddie Redmayne, who is the only one I ever paint nowadays. Not sorry.

Matchstick by Emmi Li Lindberg (VikingSoup)
VikingSoup: Red is my favorite color.

There's a Grief that can't be spoken by Louise (MangoSurprise)
MangoSurprise: I recently saw the film version of les miserables, and I have to say, despite being wary as I adore the stage version, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I decided to do a quick painting of eddie redmayne; his rendition of empty chairs at empty tables was brilliant. I'm thinking about possibly making it a series of portraits, continuing with perhaps eponine, jean valjean etc?

Jonathan Ross Show - January 19, 2013

Eddie was one of the the guests of the Jonathan Ross Show aired on 
January 19, 2013
Eddie chatted to Jonathan about his role in the big screen adaptation of 
"Les Miserables" and going to school with Prince William. They talked 
about the Golden Globe Awards, Eddie’s freckles, lips and bum too.

My night with Eddie Redmayne 
Cristina Cocco on “Jonathan Ross Show” recording ( x )
Eddie’s green eyes are marked by the American jet lack ( and by 20 minutes into Ross’ clutches); He’s tired and worn-out by fortnight of events, ceremonies and awards but, as always, in spite of a plane to Berlin from there a few hours, Eddie does not deny a pleasant chat, an autograph or a photo to anyone who comes close...
During the show, Eddie is repeatedly put in difficulty by Ross that, as always, has no mercy for anyone to sit on the leather couch of the study.

Cool photoshoot by Richard Grassie from 2008 & New York Moves article



Eddie Redmayne / New York Moves, May 2008
(full article)

“They wanted me to audition for, I shit you not, a role called “The Havard Hootie”. And I read it and this guy is supposed to be incredibly good-looking, sporty, strong… I was like, guys, seriously. Probably not…[Or] the main protagonist running around pre-historic Asia in a lindcloth. And I’m like ”I’m a white, pasty English boy. Can you imagine anything more revolting than watching me run around semi-naked? But you never know.”




As for what it’s like being thrust into a constant cycle of travel and spending time in the US away from home? Redmayne seems grateful to have the opportunity to experience it in the first place.
“If you’re lucky enough to find yourself in these places and be able to go and see things, it’s great,” he says. “You get an instant insight into the reality of these towns and cities and you’re not just being a tourist.”


From filming in post-Katrina New Orleans for the upcoming The Yellow Handkerchief (“That city, I swear…it makes you think why every other city in the world doesn’t take advice. [The people] seem to have taken. The drive and humor that comes from it is a special thing. “], to visiting New York (“[It’s] a thrill. My God this tragedy and their strife from the other end, you guys are almost apathetical to how much is there. One of the luckiest things I’ve been doing is spending so much time in New York.”), to having friends involved with the upcoming presidential race in America [“It’s extraordinary for us [in the UK], because we get the news filtered through and half a day later. And I’m trying to see how this thing is swinging back and forth and how much of it now seems based on instinct, and it’s amazing to see from across the pond. Some of my friends are out there campaigning for Hillary Clinton and they’ve traveled over from the UK, speaking passionately, with a commitment and drive that is enough to encourage someone to go out and vote.”) Redmayne is clearly embracing his newfound experiences as an opportunity to not only grow in front of the camera, but to learn from the people he’s been surrounded with behind-the-scenes as well.
