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?

He is absolutely stunning!

Show quote history

Isn’t Leclerc a less good looking Robert Downey Jr?

Hi, Leslie Odom Jr is the best looking man ever. That is all. I will be taking no questions. Thanks for your time. Please remember to take all belongings with you as you leave the auditorium.

Stormzy and Maya Jama. There cannot have been a more stunning couple surely?

Well yes in my opinion there was. Cicely Tyson, and Miles Davis.

Not particularly. I’m rather partial to the soft beauty of South Korean men nowadays (well the famous ones, the man in the street might not be up to much). I’ll never meet one (and a bit past it) but visually they are far more appealing to me now, probably a reaction to my disastrous relationship history with macho Western men.

Oh I agree with You

Have you seen Seung Song Heon (played 444 in Black)
He is a GOD on legs

Richard Burton was gorgeous and the voice 💞

I loved Clint Eastwood in his early films too.

CheerfulBunny · 09/10/2024 10:35

Elvis was supernatural, so beautiful. I can't take my eyes off him. Denzel Washington melts me with his smile though.

Robert Redford is who I think was the most handsome man in his younger years.

Jenson Ackles nowadays nearly gives him a run for his money though.

Edited

Jensen Ackles 😍😍My ultimate crush. Have loved him for years and he gets better with age. Even my DH admits he is 'one good looking bastard' 😂

Planesmistakenforstars · 09/10/2024 10:37

Whatever floats your boat. He's not my cup of tea at all, but I don't find that kind of classically handsome "man's man" remotely attractive.

Sidney Poitier ❤️

With the eyebrow 🤣

@Boobygravy ,they might not if you watched Pobol y Cwm and Rownd a Rownd.
I have a soft spot for 'Jason' in PyC, and Mathew is lovely but Iolo is DDG.

Not my cup of tea at all, thanks OP. Give me a pretty boy over a square jaw any day. Johnny Depp in the 90s over everyone else.

Absolutely yes! 👍

katseyes7 · 09/10/2024 10:44

Not for me, I'm afraid.
Now Mick Ronson.... face of an angel, body of a god.

@allthegoodusernameshavegone
thank you! That’s who he reminds me of, I was wracking my brains trying to figure it out.
He also looks a bit like Scott Bakula.

FOr you OP!

Portakalkedi · 09/10/2024 10:46

Yes he was handsome, as were many other actors at that time - Cary Grant, Gary Cooper, Gregory Peck, Tyrone Power etc. They don't seem to make them like that any more! I think George Clooney is about the nearest equivalent, but doesn't have the same appeal at all.

Overtheatlantic · 09/10/2024 10:46

Lips too thin

LunaNorth · 09/10/2024 10:46

Randolph Scott lived with Cary Grant. It was presented as ‘two bachelors about town’, but the reality was quite different.

Sad, really.

Young Redford was something else. In a Navy uniform in The Way We Were..

I´ve never been into blondes, the exception being Robert Redford. In Barefoot in the Park, with Jane Fonda. Candy for the eyes.
