Is this the most stunning man who ever lived?

I’ve just discovered an actor from the 1940s and 50s called Randolph Scott. He was super famous then - understandably - but seems to be much less well known now. Well suffice it to say my ‘Bobby socks’ are well and truly blown off! What do we all think?

I mean, come on. You can see why Nancy was conflicted.

😂Me too!! He is even more gorgeous in real life. Have you been to any SPN conventions? The guy is stunning!! 😍

Yes, went the Liverpool Comic Con!!

You know who I think is absolutely stunning irl - Ruth Connell. Rowena is one of my favourite characters anyway but she is just beautiful too!

No one mentioned Montgomery Clift yet?

I know he was gay, but him and his buddy Liz Taylor looked gorgeous together in photos.

My DP has an actor friend over in the US and I've had to stop asking DP to ask the friend to try and get on a project with him, just so he can facetime when he's with him 😂😂 DP just looks at me like I'm crazy and refuses to entertain it 🤣 jealousy methinks!

Paul Newman is the most beautiful man who ever lived.

I was once in a restaurant in Asia, and this young man about 20 sat on the table next to me on a date and he looked like the double of a young Newman. He was beautiful.

Sigh

A big yes to Oliver Reed and Montgomery Clift

But I give you, and I say lucky old Vanessa Redgrave, Franco Nero

Oh! I didn't actually realise the Clash song was about a real person. Did he actually end up an aging addict wandering the streets?? A shame if so, not my type (not that I'd be his haha) but he is objectively a very handsome young man!

in case you have no idea what I'm on about!

@Pippetypoppity

"Cary Grant and he had a Bromance. So quite ‘progress’ for his time I guess."

Lol, OP have you any idea what Hollywood was like from its beginnings in the early 1900's right up to the 1940's and beyond? It was an absolute cesspit of drugs (mostly cocaine), booze and people shagging anything that moved - man, woman, child or animal.

gotmyknickersinatwist · 09/10/2024 12:19

I like men with dark features & who are a bit rough round the edges - blonde, blue-eyed & groomed doesn't do it for me - but my answer to this question will always be Paul Newman.

beguilingeyes · 09/10/2024 12:02

You say that, but then there's this...

Sorry but without the beard he just looks like my aunt (both in her/his younger and older days!). The beard mildly improves it but only because it covers some of his face 😅

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 09/10/2024 09:37

I thought it was going to be Alain Delon.

He was extraordinarily handsome. AI couldn't come up with anything better.

That's who I was also expecting. And I completely agree.

Zooks · 09/10/2024 12:22

I’ve a crush on younger Jackie Chan!

I can't see it myself. In Butch Cassidy I only had eyes for Robert Redford.

Andoutcomethewolves · 09/10/2024 11:01

Nope. That would be the sadly departed Rik Mayall IMO. Under all the face pulling etc he was a very attractive man, with a sense of humour to match😍

But then my first crush was Shane MacGowan and I appear to be the only person ever to have fancied Spud more than the rest of the male cast of Trainspotting so I accept I may have weird taste haha

God I love Richie, err Rik. Very funny man.

Much watch some Bottom soon.

MrsSunshine2b · 09/10/2024 12:27

I can see he's objectively good looking but it's like you can smell those 1950s "values" seeping though the photograph. 😂A bit hypocritical of me as I dress pretty 1950s myself and although I might look like a tradwife I'm most certainly not!

Jude Law

Do you find him attractive in these pictures? He looks like he's doing an impression of Gollum.

Another one for Alain Delon. He was peerless.

I understand the love for Paul Newman too.

But Jean Dujardin. OMG. jean dujardin - YouTube

Shouldn't be allowed.

SammyScrounge · 09/10/2024 12:31

Alain was unbelievably beautiful.

LadyGrillingSole · 09/10/2024 12:32

I am utterly shocked that nobody has mentioned the perfect, beautiful and very much missed, Bowie!

No man ( other than dh, obs ) will ever compare.

BluebellsareBlue · 09/10/2024 12:33

Hmm he's not my cup of tea but he is a handsome man, but then again people think my choice in men is odd, I love the look of Ryan gosling, Tom cruise (top gun days and haircut) and of course, my one and only true love, Declan Donnelly (I even do a PowerPoint presentation on him to each new class every few weeks whether they like it or not lol!)

QuestionableMouse · 09/10/2024 12:33

Timothy Olyphant and Scott Eastwood do it for me!

I dio think he is very attractive but my number one will always be JFK Jr .

I was watching it yesterday which is probably why he's at the top of my mind!
