Cinematic Crush: Aaron Eckhart

Crush object: Aaron Eckhart, actor.

- He made an impressive debut (and won an Independent Spirit Award) as the misogynistic narcissist at the center of In the Company of Men.

- Memorable supporting turns in Your Friends & Neighbors, Any Given Sunday, Erin Brockovich, Nurse Betty, The Missing and Paycheck followed.

- His pitch perfect performance in the satirical Thank You for Smoking netted him Golden Globe and Independent Spirit Award nominations.

- His matinee idol good looks served him well in the noirish The Black Dahlia and the romantic comedy No Reservations.

- The indie favorite will next be seen as Gotham City District Attorney Harvey Dent -- a.k.a. the man who will be Two-Face -- in this week's big studio blockbuster The Dark Knight, but returns to his roots later this year with Alan Ball's already controversial Towelhead (formerly Nothing is Private).
