reticent Posted April 20, 2006 Author Share Posted April 20, 2006 i need to see some like it hot, definitely. any one second that opinion.... i think that one will go up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memento Mori Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 i would say marilyn looked best in "some like it hot"she's just seductive in this movie!She was also pregnant.Anyway, the entire female cast of "The Big Sleep" (incl. Bacall)It's like Bogey decided he would only do the movie if every scene had a hot chick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinky Posted April 30, 2006 Share Posted April 30, 2006 (edited) jean seberg is my all time favorite...her face was one of a kind and she managed to look great even with very short hair and without showing curves!most of the woman who are considered as legends liked to show themselves full frontal! here's jean britt ekland is my second favorite.full lips,nice eyes,well-shaped eyebrows.a real ''perfect face'' ornella muti and jane birkin are my other favorites.Ornella is still the prettiest woman of her age i think.she was EVEN hotter than Monica jane; Edited April 30, 2006 by tinky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reticent Posted May 6, 2006 Author Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) jean, britt, ornella, and jane -- i love their pics! wow. the only one i had really heard of is jane birkin. can you recommend a top movie for each of these girls?it seems like you are good with the european actresses...would you recommend romy schneider to add to this list? i was just watching "what's new pussycat" last night, romy is so adorable! i don't know if classically beautiful, but extremely cute and sexy. this is the only movie that i have seen of hers.thanks for your contribution!

tinky Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 i think ornella made her best in a movie called ''Oscar''(1991).It was a Sylvester Stallone movie and I like her look best there. jean's best:''a bout de souffle(breathless)''(1960) she's incredible in this movie.the movie is also great.if you watch it,you'll see why i call her the most beautiful woman ever britt's best:''the man with the golden gun''(1974).Roger Moore is James Bond and Britt Ekland is Mary Goodnight.:)I also saw her pics from a movie called The Bobo(she looks even better than she was in James Bond movie)but i didn't see it. oh,Romy Schneider! she's really beautiful but i haven't seen any of her movies yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 (edited) Ann Margaret and Sophia Loren . My favorite Ann Margaret movie is Bye Bye Birdie, but I think she looked her best in something like Viva Las Vegas. I've never actually seen a Sophia Loren movie that she made when she was younger, but she was so striking!Ooo! And Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra. Easily her best, most sensual, and most beautiful role. Edited May 6, 2006 by Nine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DutchChick Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Biography for Romy Schneider Birth name Rosemarie Magdelena Albach-Retty -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mini biography Born in the actors' family, she came to the movies very early starring in the very popular series 'Sissi'. Her mother, who supervised the daughter's career development, immediately approved Romy's participation in 'Christine', the remake of Max Ophuls' 'Liebelei', where Magda Schneider once starred herself. But during the filming of "Christine' young Schneider fell in love with her co-star Alain Delon and eventually moved with him to Paris. Since then she started a real international career collaborating with such famous directors as Luchino Visconti and Orson Welles. In 1964 Delon broke up with her, and being frustrated, she eventually married Harry Mayen. This was a doomed marriage and it rather quickly ended with the divorce. Later she married Daniel Biasini who either was no match for Alain Delon. Being unsatisfied with her personal life, she turned to alcohol and drugs, but her cinematic career remained intact. In 1976 she received Cesar as Best Actress for "L'important c'est d'aimer' and in 1979 she got the same award for "L'histoire simple'. The sudden death of her son, who was impaled on a fence, was a hard blow to her and she never managed to recover from this loss. Romy Schneider died on May 29, 1982. Some sources said it was a heart attack, some considered it a suicide with an overdose of sleep pills. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0002769/ If I would have to name a movie it would be La Piscine, were she co-starred with Alain Delon, she looks awesome in that one.
