Is this the most stunning man who ever lived?

[Pippetypoppity]

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?

A bit too Ken-doll for me

And too Caucasian

Give me Jason Momoa and we can reconsider

I have just finished my third full series rewatch 😳

Jude Law and Rob Lowe were far too pretty. 🤔
Matt Dillion, though. 🩷

Scott Bakulas much better looking big brother maybe!

Possibly YouTube.

I remember being actually stunned (a word often used in media but rarely true) when I saw him in that film. Stopped me in my tracks and I was just a teenager at the time. He certainly had an affect on those teenage hormones I can tell you.

Here is a surprisingly hot man, the young Stalin!😮

I'm throwing another one in! Claes Bang...preferably with a beard.

Blimey, who’d a thunk!

Young Stalin is definitive proof of the words sung by the late, great Robert Palmer

"A pretty face
Don't make no pretty heart".

Wiki says it was heavily airbrushed to hide smallpox scarring, good hair though. Apparently he had Persian ancestry.

Nope. It is a fact universally acknowledged that the most gorgeous of old movie stars is Robert Redford....

@CurlewKate - a man doing the hoovering definitely turns me on! 😂

Yay! I knew he'd come up eventually.

I am a sucker for a pretty boy, in fairness.

See also Harry Styles & Timothee Chalamet.

Looks like a thunderbird!

Cary Grant was gorgeous as was a young Paul Newman and Steve McQueen

The "King of the Cowboys", Scott was the richest man in Hollywood. Known for spending his time between takes reading the Wall Street Journal.

I love James Spader as a few pps have suggested BUT I just googled and he looks like a completely different person these days.

Yes, exactly like he does in The Blackist. He does have a certain thing about him though, I can recommend watching it.

Ted was also a looker.

Oh dear, he looks like one of my colleagues in the accounts department.

Unfortunately people grow

For truly stunning, I would have to go with Rufus Sewell. And stunning as he is I don't think still photographs do him justice somehow, he looks even better on the move.

Regardless, he looked amazing in Zen, and in the ('Shakespeare Retold') Taming of the Shrew as a cross-dressing Petruchio he looked fab in both sharp suits and womenswear.

Paul Newman, Harrison Ford, Che Guevara.
