No
But even worse, Michelle Pfeiffer isn't either. (Sorry;^)
You're right, Celeste Holm still looks wonderful as does Catherine Denueve.
I wonder if someone will post pics of some of the actresses who didn't age well. Lol, Sofia Loren will look outstanding should she hit 105 yrs old :-)
Yes, Celeste Holm has always been lovely....a soft, gentle beauty at every age.
That is one fine pic of Natalie Wood. Beauty never goes out of style!
I thought Audrey Hepburn was still wonderful to look at in her later years too!
I like a little of every genre, from action and horror to comedy to personal, family, and character-driven dramas (even a few Westerns). The Best Westerns of all time are John Ford's the Searchers, Don Siegel's the Shootist, Sam Pecckinpah's the Wild Bunch, and Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven (which puts the genre to bed in style). Saving Private Ryan is the best and most realistic WW2 movie ever filmed, with a funeral elegance as well as a true-blue patriotism. War is Hell, it says, but Hell is worth enduring sometimes.
The Godfather is the Best movie of all time-- Bar NONE. Best script, most memorable dialogue, most involving story, best acting by the ENTIRE cast, deeply moving, epic...If you don't like the Godfather, you don't like movies (and I will have very few nice words for your "taste" in film).
The real best movies of the last decade or so (screw you, Oscar!) are:
2004= The Passion of the Christ (runner-up: The Life Aquatic)
2003= Mystic River
2002= Gangs of New York
2001= The Royal Tennenbaums
2000= Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
1999= Magnolia
1998= Saving Private Ryan
1997= Good Will Hunting
1996= Fargo
1995= Braveheart
1994= Pulp Fiction (one of the all-time greats)
It's weird, but I absolutely detested KISS back in high school. Everybody I hated was into them. I liked Uriah Heep, Mountain, Black Sabbath, and Alice Cooper. Among many bands too numerous to name...Lynyrd Skynryd!
Gene has evolved into a man that I can respect, and the fact that he's actually good looking, with a sense of humor makes me feel a little different about him.
How many others didn't ring a bell?
You sound like quite the videophile. I'm lost after about 1978 when it comes to actors and movies.
RE: "You sound like quite the videophile"
I've seen my share, and probably yours too.
I also follow the award season and Box Office Numbers semi-religiously, and can point out almost every recent situation in which I believe that either Oscar or the American filmgoing public has either "gotten it right" or "blown it".
Well, if it's any consolation, My wife gets me to watch the oscars each year (she loves 'em). I usually end up nodding off though!
And the Indian girl ( Mary ????) opposite Kenin Costner in Dancing with Wolves.
Gotta start a 1)Incredible honerable mention; 2) Serious honorable mention; 3) Honorable mention. I can see 65,000 posts, and knock out that other thread trying to go for the line honors!
"and knock out that other thread trying to go for the line honors!"
Well the freeperettes loaded the male actor thread up twice as fast as this one. Though, thanks to many gals on this thread too!
Julie Christie I saw in Shampoo. Pretty lady (and nice hair). But I never saw Dances with Wolves.
That's fine.
More important than the ceremony anyway is the January 25th (this year) announcement of the nominees during the morning talk shows, and the day-after-Oscar newspaper rundowns of the winners, best fashions, mishaps, etc.

You are way out of my league!
