Full disclosure: I am obsessed with Aaron Eckhart. Back when everyone thought that Heath Ledger was going to suck as the Joker (and people did think this), I held out hope for The Dark Knight simply because Eckhart was so fundamentally right for the role of Two-Face. Think about it, no other actor so easily plays both heroes and villains; from the sleazy business exec conning a deaf woman in Neil Labute's In the Company of Men, to the big-hearted biker in Erin Brockovich, Aaron Eckhart is one of America's finest bass-mouthed actors.

So I was very pleased to watch him nail it on The Daily Show last night, where Jon Stewart lovingly ribbed Eckhart for his new role as a statutory rapist in Alan Ball's Towelhead. If only all child molesters looked more like Eckhart:

Haha, anti-method. Love it. Whatever. Eckhart could have gone on the program and said he was actually married to a 13-year old Indian girl and my reaction would still be intense, fiery, jealousy.
