Pin ups of the past

[Blahdymcblahdyface]

Tony Curtis, goodness me !!!! Who else ?

I can’t get a pic posted of him…but a young Montgomery Clift.

Can anyone assist?

Conrad Veidt

Mr Clift with Liz Taylor

Many thanks.

What plain folk they were!

I’ve gone a bit trigger happy with the thanks button on this thread!

I’m so glad to see several of my favourite teen crushes on this thread - Morten Harket, Tim Roth and Al Pacino in his Godfather era. Also adored Gregory Peck.

I give you young Ralph Fiennes as my contribution.

Bo Duke

Alain giving Mick Jagger anxiety.

Not enough pictures of James Mason and Cary Grant here...

David Sylvian

Clara Bow

May I add a bit of French arthouse retro totty - Vincent Perez in La Reine Margot, 1994. Quite a lot of nudity as I recall....

Joining you on all 3 counts, sister

Theda Bara - The Vamp

Ok, so I'm drifting from the title of the thread because I don't think he was a pin up at the time, but a young Joe Biden is one of the most beautiful men I have ever seen.

A proper All American boy.

That's a lovely picture of him.

Marianne Faithful is having a great time!

Who wouldn't in her position?!

Also late 80s/early 90s Chris Cornell, very sadly no longer with us. An amazing performer and a beautiful man.

@CheerfulBunny and @upinaballoon - I agree - the whole 60 Minute Man scene, including crap dancing in a dressing gown, is swoonful. The two of them are sexy as all get out together.

Did someone mention Montgomery Clift?

He's ridiculously good looking.

Can i just add an anecdote about Rufus Sewell, as he once kissed me?

I'll tell this story to anyone who'll listen.

He was in Macbeth, at the Donmar (i think), and my friend and I had a wee chat with him outside the stage door.
So far, so good.

10 minutes later, we bump into him in Starbucks, and he greets us like we're old friends.
Then he gave me and my friend a smooch on the lips. 😘

I think I would have died and gone to heaven, @GoodHeavens99. Did you survive, or are you communicating with us from the great beyond?

I find this thread fascinating. So many of these (male) pinups have quite refined, delicate almost feminine features, which is the complete opposite of my preferred type. I just find it incredible, I love how preferences vary.

My friend and I did sorta float home with ridiculous smiles on our faces.

I must have blushed something savage.

This must have been 25 years ago, and I'm still smiling right now.
