The couple met in August 2016 on OkCupid, and a few days later, on a sweltering day, they had coffee then walked through Central Park where Ms. Macchi carried a parasol, which she regularly took along on dates not only to block the sun, but to weed out men put off by her quirkiness.

He carries that slight quirkiness we demand of our leading men literally on his face, which has just enough distance from the symmetrical ideal of classical handsomeness: If you wanted to describe it as "the face of a character actor," you could, but it's also not a stretch for people to find him attractive.

But it also had the potential to be a giant embarrassment, and I was wary that Cats wouldn't be able to overcome either its own inherent quirkiness or the penchant of its director, Tom Hooper, to obliterate any emotional ebb and flow in his films and ratchet the pathos up to 11 at all times.

Clinton, who is typically a reserved presence on the trail, seemed to embrace the quirkiness of campaigning in Las Vegas, posing for photographs with Britney Spears, who was in town for her show at Planet Hollywood, and even receiving the endorsement of 500 sex workers, mostly from Carson City brothels, who formed the "Hookers 4 Hillary" group.

Composed in a coolly ironic, carefully modulated voice that might be seen as a Brooklyn-gentry counterpoint to the antic exclamatory wild man school once dominated by the likes of Mr. Bangs, the pieces in "Emotional Rescue" come across with the kind of quirky mildness (or mild quirkiness) that lends itself to guest appearances on National Public Radio.

Even if the chaotic finale drags on a bit, the movie also serves as a loving ode to the comics -- including a tribute to Spider-Man creators Stan Lee and Steve Ditko -- that capitalizes on the attributes (and lower budgets) of animation to tell a story that indulges in the kind of quirkiness and eccentricity that would derail a live-action blockbuster.

Though Victorian Secrets got a mention in the New York Times and earned Sarah a spot on The View (meeting Whoopi Goldberg "was like meeting the Queen," she said), most of the attention has been on the outward quirkiness of their lives: the way they dress and the bikes with the big front wheels and the gramophone in their front room.

"There was about a year or two years before [he was diagnosed] where there were some anomalies – changes in his behavior and emotional state and personality changes – that we talked up to aging, quirkiness, getting older, getting mellower, until we all realized and tests were done and we found that it was confirmed," Carradine says of his father-in-law, who was diagnosed in his late 50s, which is on the "pretty young" side.

But the minimalist aesthetic indicated by the title shouldn't suggest that the works are dry or ascetic: to the contrary, the nine artists included here — Lula Blocton, Regina Bogat, Samia Halaby, Hermine Ford, June Leaf, Lizbeth Marano, Kazuko Miyamoto, Lynn Umlauf, and Merrill Wagner — infuse their efforts with an unexpected warmth, humanity, and quirkiness that feel all the more invigorating when compared with the cerebral objectification prized by their male Minimalist counterparts.

Her geek-chic quirkiness, which mixed camouflage and sequins for day, and denim and taffeta for evening, all of it layered with big costume jewelry, was a model not just for those she worked with, but also for her customers: "Jenna's picks" were publicized in the catalog and on the website; she was photographed at home in Park Slope, Brooklyn (and later, post-divorce, at home in SoHo); she once appeared in a catalog shoot painting her young son's toenails pink.

"He's a character actor trapped in a leading man's body" is a phrase that has been applied to nearly every A-list white leading man of the past few decades, including Brad Pitt, Matthew McConaughey, Ryan Reynolds, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Robert Downey, Jr. It is a phrase so ubiquitous, it has become clear that what we actually want from our leading men — part of the ideal we ask them to express — is at least a pretense at the originality, the artistic integrity and quirkiness, that we ascribe to character actors, the leading man's less-beautiful counterpart.
