I saw his acting first on The OC- he played the 'serious, intelligent, soulful and troubled' new guy, and did so with uncommon intensity and smarts. He was off my radar until Southland- a high quality completely entertaining cop show coming back this season. His acting chops are first rate, and I'd love to see him jump to movies.
Here's another reason to Crush, via Wikipedia:
McKenzie was born Benjamin McKenzie Schenkkan, in Austin, Texas to Mary Frances Victory, a prize-winning poet, and Pieter Meade Schenkkan. His uncle is the Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Robert Schenkkan.
I used to love him on The OC. I've never seen Southland though
Yep, he's a cutie. Although, I think I'd give the nod to Jeremy Renner.
He used to come in a lot to the Starbucks in L.A. where I worked and was always really nice, which was a nice change of pace from all the other actors who came in.
I didn't so much find him attractive...until that blurb at the end of your post. Literary genes...YUM!
I've been in love with that guy ever since I first saw him brood as Ryan Atwood on "The OC"...what a dreamboat.
Yes! His stock just went up so much knowing he's that closely related to writers. Soulful conversations. Intelligent thoughts abound.
Yes, please! He's so very hot :)
He went to my sister's college (UVA). She says he was gorgeous, but much shorter than he looks on TV ;-)
i LOVED Junebug!! what a great movie.
