katyscar11ett Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 It had to be done, after seeing the Beautiful Women thread. I'm certain it's been asked before, many times, but I can't find a current thread so - - - I know, I know, there were so many - Errol Flynn, Tyrone Power, John Garfield . . . . I'll add someone rarely thought of, Dirk Bogarde, I think he was gorgeous. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhryun Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 My favorite subject! Stephen Boyd Jeffrey Hunter Gary Cooper James Coburn Valentino Richard Egan Laurence Olivier Laurence Harvey All in their younger years, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhryun Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I think James Stewart was very handsome in his day : ) Next, James Garner, William Holden and Steve McQueen. Jalanna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhryun Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 To me the obvious answer is: MARLON BRANDO Other handsome men were: Errol Flynn Cary Grant Montgomery Clift James Dean Paul Newman But none of the above could hold a candle to a young Marlon Brando who exuded such sexiness like no other actor before or after him. Just take a look at him in "Streetcar Named Desire", "On the Waterfront" and "Guys and Dolls" and you'll see what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erzbet Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 The only, the only, RONALD COLMAN. Mamma mia, he was/is something else! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealfuster Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 some wonderful choices in this thread, all of which are agreeable to me. So I will pick...George O'Brien, who plays the husband to Janet Gaynor in the silent, "Sunrise". What amazes me about him is, that he looks so less dated than many men in films of that time. He looks just like he could walk out of the film, and be totally up to date looking and a part of this century. He is very cute and I can see why the woman from the city liked him...

shainablue1 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Twisterseal- your list covers it and I would only add Charles Boyer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cybrspacy Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 I'll second that vote for Boyer. He was a handsome and suave actor. Where, oh where, are the Boyers these days?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhryun Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Ronald Coleman has the best diction of anyone in the movies. Listen to his voice in Random Harvest.... What about George Brent??? He was in alot of Bette Davis movies and they had an affair for about 7 years.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgeear Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 I recently saw Charles Boyer in 'The Garden of Allah', with Marlene Dietrich. He was stunningly handsome in that movie, made early in his career I think. I had never thought he was anything special in his later career, but he was devastatingly good-looking in his younger years. Ditto Robert Taylor; I had never understood his appeal until I saw him in his younger days in a movie with Barbara Stanwyck, I forget the title. As I've reached a more mature stage of life, I find the more masculine, tough-guy types more attractive -- like Robert Ryan and Sterling Hayden. Very manly. Another very handsome actor was Guy Madison, back in the 40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katyscar11ett Posted July 5, 2005 Author Share Posted July 5, 2005 It was so interesting to watch this thread because "different strokes for different folks". :-) There are many that I agree with on here, but some I wouldn't walk across the street to see. As I'm sure most of you are with some of the choices. This is great fun. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bhryun Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 There are so many handsome actors, here are the ones that come to my mind first.... 1. Marlon Brando (can't beat a young Brando - stunning) 2. Paul Newman 3. Tony Curtis (in "The Defiant Ones") 4. Clark Gable 5. Errol Flynn 6. James Dean 7. Rock Hudson 8. Montgomery Clift 9. Cary Grant 10.Humphrey Bogart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhryun Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 My vote for handsome actors are, 1. Richard Gere - is he too "current"??? 2. Cary Grant - so debonaire in his suit 3. Richard Widmark - for some reason, I find him handsome 4. Marlon Brando - hot, hot, HOT 5. Tyrone Power - classic good looks 6. Clark Gable - loved those dimples and dark hair 7. James Stewart - not in the "classic" sense though 8. Paul Newman - resembled a young Brando years ago. Oh, I think I have to be fanned down now...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bggalaxy Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 jasmine: I give you props on Richard Widmark. He is one of my favorites but I would have bet good money he would have never made this thread. Good for you! LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimbo3200 Posted July 14, 2005 Share Posted July 14, 2005 I agree with many who have already given their lists. Here's mine: 1. Montgomery Clift 2. Paul Newman (younger days) 3. Robert Montgomery 4. Lew Ayres (before the mustache) 6. Cary Grant 7. Sterling Hayden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
