    He's "strange" because he has such integrity and is so intelligent, but he's also obviously very gracious and kind, unlike most of society these days. There's so many actors that are fake and not down to earth at all, James Spader is the opposite of that. Maybe that has a lot to do with having such a strong female presence in his upbringing, and he has the best of a New England native's qualities.

    I had the hugest crush on him (JS) in the 80's, when I was a tween (11-12ish) and as I grew up, so did my feelings which dove, head first, right into LUST in the 90's. I had never seen a man with such beautiful and angelic yet still very masculine facial features....and there is something about the sound of his voice....okay sorry.....Soooo the next came the fantasy phase in which he starred in quite frequently. Hey, I couldn't help it ;)
    So as I've matured , things have settled down just slightly and it is safe to say that currently, I am entering the potential marriage phase...even though I am very single...just had to throw it out there JUST in case. (:))
    Mr. Spader, thank you for so many amazing years of gracing us with your assistance in thinking outside of the dull and way too safe, box! Looking forward to admiring you and your work for many more years to come! XOX, Lorilee

That's the art of brilliant acting to exude a persona so that lines aren't just read. He maxes out every scene. Watch Blacklist if you haven't seen it yet. It's brilliant.

That's one of the reasons I started watching the show, because I freaking love Hannibal Lecter and Spader could be playing that role perfectly. I 've been searching for so long, for a show with a charakter similar to Hannibal and I finally found that in the Blacklist with Spader. I'm now a HUGE fan of the show and of James of course;)
