Subdeacon Joe Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Great tribute to some gorgeous ladies. I'm sure that there will be comments about "How could she put (name) so high, but (name 2) so low? To which I say, "De gustibus non est disputandum." www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QlSgOtHNHo A lot of elegant, dignified ladies shown. It is a shame that those qualities seem to have been discarded by so many of the "stars" of today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Sabre Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Boy, that was fun! I would add: Carol Landis Barbara Stanwyck Cyd Charisse Dinah Shore Ida Lupino Inger Stevens Joanne Woodward Rosemary Clooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocWard Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Cyd Charisse was in there. I thought it was a pretty good list. Being personal preferences, I would add some, change a few around. For me, I would have to start with Natalie Wood at number one, followed by Audrey Hepburn, Rita Hayworth and on. Hedy (not Hedley) Lamarr would be on the list, although whenever I look at her, I just think about how brilliant she was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OT - My mother had been told numerous times she looked and sounded much like Hedy Lamarr. They shared the same birth name as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noz Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Only a total fool would attack such a project. All are lovely, some more than others. Comes down to chocolate and vanilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a difference between attacking and questioning why some either weren't included, or were placed where they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I didn't see Ginger or Mary Ann on that list, but of course, they were of another era. Close but no cigar, ladies. Correction: Tina Louise did appear on stage and in Hollyweird in the mid 50's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calamity Kris Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 She must have been quite a beautiful lady. She was. I have a fantastic glam picture of her from the early 50s. I'll have to find it and post it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted July 25, 2014 Share Posted July 25, 2014 Hedy Lamarr was not only a beautiful, sexy movie star, but had a brilliant scientific mind. She and a friend invented and patented frequency skipping techniques and equipment which is used to prevent enemy from intercepting communications between things such as torpedoes and the command transmitters, etc. The technique is still in use today! IIRC today is her birthday! So is mine! I'll go along with Natalie Wood being one of the top movie stars. Just watched her and James Garner in "Cash McCall". (Although one of the "sexier" things in that movie was the converted B-26 (in the days BBJ's...Before BizJets!). Too bad they are both gone now.

Warden Callaway Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I would have placed Grace Kelly at the top of the list with Ingrid Bergman close behind. Was there any explanation as to how the ranking was made? For sure not the women of Walmart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
