  3. > {quote:title=Catwoman915 wrote:}{quote} > Well the other day I was told I look like Meryl Streep. Probably because we both have very fair skin , blonde hair, and the same shape nose. I don't see it though. There is not a single day that I am out with my husband that we don't get approached by someone to tell him he looks like Alec Baldwin. It never fails no matter where we are. I guess there could be worse things. Streep and Baldwin. That's a good combo anyway you slice it. :-)
  4. > {quote:title=WhyaDuck wrote:}{quote} > Maybe there are actors out there that could do roles like this...but Hollywood just doesn't do this much. Everybody has to be young and beautiful, not just movies but TV as well, The Soaps, Prime Time, even the people on the news telling you about the fire or the shooting hav to be beautiful. ....and I think thats what draws people into The African Queen because most peoples grandparents weren't beautiful, or their parents ...most married couples aren't beautiful and alot of teenagers aren't that beautiful either...But what Hollywood misses is that looks aren't that important, not really. Theres alot more to relationships than how you look....So I'm not saying the actors haven't been or aren't out there. Just saying that there are few movies like The African Queen and Marty because Hollywood is all about the young and beautiful. They have to keep cranking out the young beautiful couple movies, even though they don't relate to the audience, where as African Queen and Marty really do. ....So if Hollywood slaps a handsome young guy into a movie with a pretty young girl and it fails completely at the box office, and the producer wonders what went wrong, well maybe they've just beat the young and beautiful angle to death. ....Again, I don't see why the news person telling me about the car wreck has to be young and beautiful, but I guess it's all modern show biz. > > Now TV did have Rosanne and the rating show people could relate to her and Goodman together. ....TV also gave us Archie and Edith that got big ratings and they weren't beautiful either.....and Ralph and Alice weren't the most beautiful couple ever........Now TV has gave us a million beautiful couples and I bet you can count on your fingers how many of these shows were any good. I'm just as passionate about old TV as I am about old movies, and I can only name one TV show of yesteryear with two beauties. The Dick Van Dyke Show. :-)
  5. > {quote:title=Film_Fatale wrote:}{quote} > I look a little bit like a young Sally Field. > (without the hat, of course). You look like her without the hat. Ha! I love Sally Field's body of work, loved her as the Flying Nun and Gidget when I was a kid, and she's still as cute as a button today. Sybil, I think, was one of her greatest performances.
  6. > {quote:title=CineSage_jr wrote:}{quote} > When I was younger (we're talking about 25 years younger, though I don't look all that much different now), I got everything from "Christopher Reeve," to "Desi Arnaz, jr.," to "John Travolta." Since this trio don't really bear much resemblance to one another, it suggests that I didn't, or don't, look much like any of them. > > But it was flattering nevertheless. I would have to guess there is a certain quality of each of them people see in you, or maybe it's the smile. :-)

  8. > {quote:title=lulu2u wrote:}{quote} > Once upon a time, and none of us have that many fingers to count back, I had the big brown eyes and hair coloring of Natalie Woods. I still have the eyes but the hair is another story, or should I say color. Someone once told me I had a Mryna Loy nose and I will take that to my grave as high praise and a true compliment. But any day now I expect to wake up and see Zasu Pitts looking back at me in the mirror. I don't remember if it was you, but on another thread someone else said they look like NW. Gee you're lucky. You have Myrna Loys's nose and I have the awful Barrymore profile! And that was so funny about Zasu Pitts! Hahahhaha! Me, too! lol

  10. > {quote:title=CineMaven wrote:}{quote} > Well, I've been told I look like...aw hell, just look at the back of the March TCM Movie Playing Guide. I don't get the guide! Hmm? Curiosity piqued here. lol
  11. > {quote:title=skimpole wrote:}{quote} > Umm? Masculin Feminin? The Music Room? Interesting parallels in those two movies. I hope the ending of your story goes as well as what I read for the country nobleman in TMR and you too opt for one grand gesture to recall past glories. :-)
  12. > {quote:title=patful wrote:}{quote} > When I was eighteen, with lots of wind and humidity, I supposedly looked like Art Garfunkel with an extreme tan. Now I look like Death warmed over. Hahahahahahaha! Death Warmed Over. Oops, I hope you're were being funny about the Death Warmed Over. :-(
  13. > {quote:title=PK wrote:}{quote} > My life did work out quite well, just as I think Deanie's did. That's good to hear. It'd be terrible if you life really suc*ed. lol I may have had to rethink my imaginary ending for Deanie's life with her doctor husband and their 2 children. lol
  14. I started a thread asking what movie best reflects your personal life and some couldn't think of one and took it a step further and instead answered they looked like or were told they looked like a certain celeb. Okay, so who do you look like, or were told you look like and agree? I've been told I look like Greta Garbo, or maybe it was one of the Gabor sisters. Ha!
  15. > {quote:title=scsu1975 wrote:}{quote} > Well, this pretty much spells the end of the movie careers of Cheech and Chong. Ha! lol
  16. I can barely think of two celebs today that could fit that bill you pose. Who out there today of the box office draws isn't a hunk or a babe? I'm not very familiar with today's Hollywood, so...

Sorry. lol

What would ever happen to that scene in Now Voyager if they were to get smoking scenes banned?! :-( > > Well, they may split a chewing gum kiss --Dividing a stick of gum with the lips. But the effect wouldn't be the same. Ha-ha. Well, Paul Henreid could pre-chew the gum and pass it to Bette in a kiss. :-)
  21. > {quote:title=redeliver wrote:}{quote} > Maybe Perkins. The day I look like Gregory Peck will be the best day of my life! Ain't nuttin' wrong with looking like Perkins! He did pretty good on his looks and we ladies liked him, psycho or not. lol :-)

  24. > {quote:title=ugaarte wrote:}{quote} > 'A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" with Peggy Garner. > > Ugaarte I wanted to tell you, one of the reasons that movie is one of my favorites is it mimics my mother's life. It's odd to hear the same of you. It was a bitter sweet life for her, to say the least.
  25. > {quote:title=PK wrote:}{quote} > *Splendor in the Grass* (the Deanie character) - The funny thing is, I have been told that I bear a resemblance to Natalie Wood. I guess it's in part true, because I see that same resemblance in my 24 year old daughter, who swears it's the eyes and coloring. Wow, that's a pretty heavy movie! I hope your life worked out as well as I imagined Deanie's.
