British actor Ben Barnes, aka Prince Caspian, aka my new hero.

What I love about "Prince Caspian" is the parallelism between the film and Christianity. In the movie, Narnia is going through a dark time--a time when even the most faithful are doubting Aslan's presence.

When Lucy tells her siblings that she saw Aslan, they don't believe her. When she proves to be correct, they ask her why they didn't see him. "Maybe you weren't looking," she says. Isn't that so true about us? We're so busy looking for how our way is going to work that we miss the ultimate, true way.

After watching the movie, I thought for a shameful fraction of a split of a second, "I want someone who is what Aslan is to Lucy." But, of course, that's silly, because I already do.

Also, note the scarf. It took me ages to finish. You can't fully appreciate it when it's on screen (in real life the art looks better), but still!
