Paul Newman was gorgeous, but the strongest reaction I've ever had to seeing an actor for the first time was Mel Gibson in The Bounty. It was 1984, and I'd never seen him before. I was mesmerised the entire film, thinking "Who is he?". When the credits came up, I made a mental note, "Mel Gibson, Mel Gibson". There was no Internet then, so I had to do a bit of research! I assumed he was English as his Fletcher Christian accent was so good. He was gorgeous for a while, but I never really took to him in any other role. It was probably the costumes in The Bounty that did it 😆
