Bolesroor Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Okay this thread is for the ladies... who are the classic film actors that you find the most sexy, good-looking and charming? And who are the ones who make your skin crawl? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeniaH Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Bolesroor, here is my favorite: I'll get back to you with the "skin crawlers". I have to think about it... (UPDATE): My vote for "least sexy" would be Don Knotts. Though more a tv icon, he was also in movies ("The Incredible Mr. Limpet"). As a comic actor, though, he's very funny!

ThelmaTodd Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Cary Grant Herbert Marshall (Suave, well mannered, intelligent and good English diction) Alan Ladd Kirk Douglas Gregory Peck Clark Gable Robert Mitchum Humphrey Bogart Burt Lancaster William Holden Lawrence Olivier Henry Fonda Joseph Cotten Ray Milland Tyrone Power Ronald Colman Robert Taylor I like tall, smart, educated, good looking men who are good with words, possess charm, who are capable of self restraint, not easily taken in by a woman (the really good looking ones get plenty of practice fending off women and seeing through them!), men that can deal with adversity and be counted upon in bad situations. I like self knowledge and integrity and dislike phonies. These are all qualities I would want in a son! We should remember that putting someone on film and projecting them on a big screen magnifies and possibly distorts their actual real life sex appeal. I would value a man who looks every bit as good in real life as on the screen and who had internalised their good on screen qualities. What we find attractive tells a great deal about oneself! I don't like men who come across as bumpkins, who are unintelligent, who resort to violence without good reason or thinking, who never take a stand when they should and who aren't decent enough to care about how their behaviour affects others. I like for a man to be very well informed on at least one subject other than sports. Edited by: ThelmaTodd on Dec 13, 2011 11:51 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bolesroor Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 I just recently saw Burt Lancaster in "Sweet Smell Of Success." In my opinion that was the role he was born to play... and he looked great in it, even with the glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprocket_Man Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 > Okay this thread is for the ladies... who are the classic film actors that you find the most sexy, good-looking and charming? And who are the ones who make your skin crawl? One cannot read the title of this thread and fail to recount the famous tale of an inebriated John Barrymore's soujourn into the ladies' room during some long-forgotten Hollywood function. A shocked woman entered the restroom and came upon the Great Profile relieving himself in one of the toilets. WOMAN: "Sir! This is for ladies only!" BARRYMORE (turning toward her, his member in hand): "So, Madam, is this!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeniaH Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Bolesroor, another role Lancaster was born to play (in my opinion) was Elmer Gantry. He could sell ice to the Eskimos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EugeniaH Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Barrymore was certainly a class act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
