Description

okay so his interpretation of Alfred isn’t really my cup of tea but I gotta admit I’m surprised nobody talks about Igor Krol’s eternal cuteness

like he is such a lively, expressive Alfred with a permanently astonished expression on his face and biggest, brightest eyes imaginable

look how hard he’s praying in that second-to-last pic, little face all crumpled up in desperation like his entire life depends on it, this just breaks my heart because he’s so so so upset and frightened by what happened to Sarah

and that last pic where he’s crouched down hiding behind the Professor like if I can’t see you you can’t see me Alfred sweetie that’s not gonna work

or pic number one which is part cuddling-a-bag-that’s-as-big-as-his-entire-upper-body and part sunshine-and-rainbows-and-all-things-pure smile

@Russia why do you have all the best Alfreds, like where do you find these boys, tell us the secret so we can cast them in every other production too
