Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Peter T. Date: 30 Aug 05 - 04:44 PM I cannot believe that no one, including me, has mentioned Julie Christie, who is basically the gold standard, actually above that, well above 1 Helen (the amount of beauty it takes to launch 1000 ships). One of the most beautiful women ever is Yoko Shimada, who some people will remember......... yours, Peter T. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Lin in Kansas Date: 30 Aug 05 - 02:34 PM Peter, thanks for mentioning "Witness." Harrison Ford, in any of his movies, starting with "American Graffiti" and "Star Wars" (the first one--yeah, I know, Episode 4--it's still the first one to me). Richard Dreyfuss in "The Goodbye Girl." Smart, funny, and VERY romantic. Sigh. Keven Costner in "Silverado" and "Bull Durham." Love the bathtub scene--and Susan Sarandon in the same movie. Susan is sexy in ANY of her movies. ("White Palace" comes to mind). Thanks for the correction on Ellen Barkin's name, Kimchee. My bad. And another vote for Sean Connery ("Finding Forrester" is a very good movie made since 1987, Clinton. But actually if we're only going by good performances, half of the women mentioned above would not BE mentioned--Raquel Welch, indeed)! Tommy Lee Jones, me too. Yum... Kris Kristofferson in "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore." Lin |

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Peter T. Date: 30 Aug 05 - 07:41 AM A few more obscure ones worth checking out -- Kelly McGillis in Witness (the first thing she was ever in was Reuben, Reuben, which prompted Stanley Kauffman of the New Republic to liken her to a shower of gold). Margaret Sullavan in The Moon's Our Home (a wonderful movie that no one ever sees anymore). Elizabeth Taylor in Ivanhoe or Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (sharing her beauty peak with Paul Newman). And, although she was not my type, Olivia Hussey in Romeo and Juliet was quite beautiful (as was her co-star, whatever his name was). And speaking of beautiful couples, Robert Redford and Jane Fonda were both at their peak in The Electric Horseman (it is amusing to see them in Barefoot in the Park a few years earlier when they are at the chrysalis stage). yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: van lingle Date: 28 Aug 05 - 06:59 AM Oh and Mariangela Melato in Wertmuller's "Swept Away" with Giancarlo Giannini. A very sexy film. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: van lingle Date: 28 Aug 05 - 06:49 AM L.H., You're probably talking about Kate Beckinsale who is quite beautiful. I can't remember any of her films right now but Samantha Eggar was a stunner and quite sexy. Jessica Lange in Rob Roy and Madeliene (sp?) Stowe in Last of the Mohicans and Eva in The Sun Also Rises really did it for me. And Kim Basinger in L.A. Confidential. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 27 Aug 05 - 08:30 PM I also have to put in a good, solid vote for Ava Gardner. She was a woman who positively smouldered. She was portrayed rather well by a modern actress (whose name I've temporarily forgotten) in the recent movie, "The Aviator". |

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: GUEST,Sidewinder. Date: 27 Aug 05 - 02:56 AM The sexiest female movie stars I can think of off the top of my head are Senta Berger, Raquel Welch (1 Million Years BC and Bedazzled),Pam Grier,and Halee Berry and ofcourse Salma Hayek and Kim Basinger and I quite like Sherilynn Fenn and Elizabeth Montgomery and who could forget Cyd Charisse and Betty Grable and Jane Russell or Maureen O'Sullivan and Merle Oberon. I cannot believe I haven't mentioned Mae West yet nor Teresa Russell or even Fiona Richmond but by far the sexiest and most revered lady in the movies has to be the one and only Margaret Rutherford a real humdinger of a gal if ever there was one!

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Little Hawk Date: 25 Aug 05 - 09:26 PM Oh, my...oh, my! Lotsa good stuff here. Let me add one more vote for the glorious, incomparable Diana Rigg!!! Brains, class, and totally lithe sizzle! I'm also crazy about Winona Ryder, but in a slightly different way than what I intended in this thread...it's not that I think she's sexy, exactly, it's more than that. "Sexy" is not the word that immediately comes to mind. She's simply irresistible. NO shoplifting wisecracks, please! We've heard it all before. |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Stilly River Sage Date: 25 Aug 05 - 09:12 PM I forgot to name a role. Sheer magnetism in a role, without sex involved, he's good in Men In Black and The Fugitive. In those he's just smart and good looking and the sexiness is part of it. He was in a little made-for-tv movie with Annette O'Toole many years ago, with a title something like Broken Vows that was a wonderfully sexy little flick. Very made-for-tv, though. SRS |

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: frogprince Date: 25 Aug 05 - 03:07 PM Eric, Didntcha realize I was being sarcastic about Bo Derrick? Those two movies tried desperately to be sexy, failed utterly, and served to prove that nudity with a great shape can be no more stunning than Kathy Bates in a hot tub scene. Peter, you beat me to submitting Monroe in Bus Stop. Yesssss.... Didn't think of Diane Rigg because with her I think television. But how'n hell would a man choose between her and Marilyn Monroe.... I know this isn't about nude scenes, and I've seen a lot of nude scenes that did more damage than good for the movie. But have ya seen "Juliette of the Spring", with "Juliette" dancing and playing the harmonica while drying off from bathing in the river. Perhaps more about innocence and spirit than sex, but so lyrical and just beautiful. (The actresses name?) |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Cluin Date: 25 Aug 05 - 02:54 PM Ingrid Pitt, in any of those old Hammer Horrors... a big meaty horror sandwich with liberal amounts of busty cleavagey sex dripped all over it. |

As hot as she was, I actually think Anna Paquin was sexier in that movie... Especially, in that moment of bordom, where she quite plainly suggests, "Hey... let's deflower the kid." Hubba! |
Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: alanabit Date: 25 Aug 05 - 11:39 AM No one has mentioned Anne Bancroft in "The Graduate" or Kate Hudson in "Almost Famous".

Subject: RE: BS: Sexiest movie role ever!!! From: Peter T. Date: 25 Aug 05 - 10:47 AM I don't even like Angelina Jolie, but even I must admit that she makes an astounding Lara Croft. For sheer dripping sexuality, no one has ever come close to Marilyn Monroe, probably in "Bus Stop". In "Some Like It Hot" she is like some being from another planet come to grace us with sex. The closest I can think of is the dance scene in Picnic with Kim Novak, or (as already noted) Kathleen Turner in Body Heat. For really old movies, I think Carole Lombard was the most stunning -- one watches Mr. and Mrs. Smith (the original) or My Man Godfrey as if beaten with a sledge hammer. yours, Peter T. |
