Cracking film, that. Here's Anthony Hopkins from the same film.

I couldn't stand the film, just remembered how good TD looked in it! 😄

Queen’s Roger Taylor.
And a bit niche. Historian Michael Wood from my student days.

I remember Michael Wood, they played In Search of the Trojan War here in the 80s.

And that leads to Sophia Schliemann wearing the so-called Priam's Treasure ...

That Oliver Reed is so sexual when he's acting on screen. A little bit too much to handle!

OMG I used to have such a crush on Michael Wood. I once saw him in the bar at Manchester University - I was too scared to go and say hello (I don't think I would have been able to speak!)

Glad to see someone posted Dirk Bogarde. What a beautiful man. My offering is Martin Sheen around the time of Apocalypse Now.

Definitely, sure wouldn't have said no to a young Ramon! 😋

Who would be your pick?

notofsoundmind · 22/04/2024 11:29

I think Liz Taylor was the most beautiful woman that I have ever seen, and Paul Newman.

I must be an odd bod as I am quite fussy and do not really think that many people are truly good looking, just okish😁

Ok, definitely not a pin up - quite the opposite - but a bit of a hottie in his youth. Joe Stalin.

The cheekbones on the women are incredible.
Not a filler among them.

No fillers but many teeth removed - wisdom and molars - to accentuate the cheekbones

The most exquisite woman who has ever drawn breath

She was stunning... Love her films... Particularly High Society. She actually wore her engagement ring from Prince Rainier in the film!!

Love Michael Madsen!

Couldn't watch the recent film about Cary Grant. Although his story is fascinating, the whole point of Cary Grant is that he looked like Cary Grant. Not Jason Isaacs.

Bogart, Cagney, Grant, James Stewart, Errol Flynn, James Mason, Clark Gable - film stars first and foremost.
