To conclude a fun thread I started about ‘stunning’ men can we vote on the marvellous Mr Peck please. He was mentioned over and over and over again by so many of us. Understandably of course. Love to see if it’s ‘official’ 🤣.

Paul Newman, whatever age. Late 60s Elvis - my god, he was gorgeous.

I'm going to throw in a young Jack Nicholson.

Gregory Peck’s grandson Ethan is pretty darned hot too

Exactly @KillingMeDeftIy. She really did. And she was so beautiful and talented.

Omg I almost forgot this sweet little specimen

Gregory Peck's grandson Ethan is also an actor. Good-looking guy but not as good-looking as his grandad!

I’d go Richard Burton but I’m not sure I can separate the purely physical stunning.

It’s the voice, the tempestuous relationship with Elizabeth Taylor, the true genius of his work.

If I could do it in a vacuum just looking at images I’d probably go Steve McQueen and James Dean and I thought I didn’t go for blondes.

How about Christopher Plummer as Captain Von Thirst Trapp?

I was just about to post exactly this!!! 😍

Also Omar Sharif had his moments when I thought he was the most stunning man I’d ever seen.

Paul Newman. Lovely to look at and did a huge amount for charity.
often lauded for long marriage to Joanna Woodward.
shame started as an affair

steve McQueen also lovely looking

I had a bit of a crush on James Cagney. For the life of me I don't know why...and Virgil from Thunderbirds.

I'm not usually into blondes but Paul Newman and James Dean were both soooooo attractive!

No, Alexander Dreymon is the most stunning man ever!

Montgomery Clift - pre-car crash and young Al Pacino.

I though he was simply stunning looking in the marvellous "The Big Country" but I am a sucker for men wearing the type of clothes he wore in it, especially knee high boots. Plus I loved his character, so genuinely noble and honourable without a hint of icky self righteousness.

See also Nathan Fillion's outfits in "Firefly".

Thinking about it, it's the actor in the specific character that I find attractive.

Except I always think the younger Keanu Reeves was stunningly beautiful.

As Uhtred I mean,

Not the clean cut, clean shaven modern Alexander Dreymon. Love a man with long dark hair and facial hair.

GreyCarpet · 11/10/2024 20:02

No. That would be Jeremy Brett but only as Sherlock Holmes. He was quite an unremarkable looking man otherwise but as Sherlock.

Just gorgeous!

I actually think Sam Neill is still bloody sexy. Watching him now in Apple Never Fall. Any older ladies agree!
