Facial hair is a delicate issue.

Too much and you look like you've recently been unearthed in a cave, uncontacted by human civilization.

Too little, and you look like a tween boy who's maaaaaybe got facial hair but not quiiiiiite really yet, and so it just sort of looks like, "Hey do you have dust on your face, or...?"

And then, of course, there's the worst of all—the midpoint between these two extremes, where you look like a high school kid who's WAY too proud of his puberty progress.

It is this tragic midpoint that Little Women costar Timothée Chalamet has chosen and, dear reader, it is simply... how to put this kindly... a bold choice! Let's just go with that.

Timothée recently turned up to the National Board of Review Gala in New York with this mustachioed look...

And, well, the internet was basically unanimous:

Now before we go any further—obviously Timothée Chalamet is a flawless porcelain doll with the kind of bone structure that sends male models everywhere into fits of dysmorphia.

And—already, at his young age—he's known as something of a style icon. He even styled himself in Little Women, for crying out loud. He has impeccable taste, and he's the sort that can pull off *ahem* almost any look.

And, of course, he's pretty unanimously considered one of the finest actors of his generation.

It's not many an actor who gets Oscar-nommed at the age of twenty-three. And then there's the whole French aspect—not just his extremely French name, but stuff like THIS:

We are all, obviously, deeply in love with him (yes, even you, you just don't realize it yet).

So, Timothée, if you're reading, this is said with the utmost care and respect:

As you might guess, Chalamet's new look took Twitter by storm, and folks had some notes.

Though it was not without its supporters (shockingly).

You know what they say about broken clocks and all. But at least we can all agree on one thing: this mustache is an audacious move.

Credit where it's due.
