Sarsgaard's Beard: December 2007

It began innocently enough, nearly one year ago. Peter "forgot to shave" prior to attending the Lunchbox Hunger Relief Benefit for Food Bank of New York on December 6, 2007. After the event, he and Maggie bickered over him looking like a slob. To prove his point, Sarsgaard vowed to grow The Beard until she admitted he was right, and she was wrong. Thus, a monster was unleashed. (Photo: Getty Images)
