Did you ever notice how George Clooney has a penchant for wobbling his head around whenever he's trying to get the audience's attention during an important dramatic scene?

As brilliant an actor as Clooney is, it's really the single major flourish which sets him apart from other A-listers, and once you notice it, you'll never be able to un-notice it.

You might not even be consciously aware that you've seen Clooney doing it, but your brain definitely clocked it, and so the head-wobbling scenes will typically stick around in your mind longer than the ones where he's a little more mannered and restrained.

Hell, it even got mentioned in an episode of Entourage once.
