Absolutely nothing against CAL Bear Allison Stokke but she's younger than probably most people on this board. This thread is for "Classic Beauties" Grand old dames of hotness.
while she’s certainly younger than MANY on this board, I’m also fairly certain that there are members here who weren’t born yet when this board was going ga-ga over an underage allison Stokke.
For @Buck Turgidson - here’s one of the most famous actresses of the Pre-Code era of Hollywood film making, and definitely a redhead. Myrna Loy might be in “black and white,” but she sizzles in The Barbarian, 1933. This is one of the more infamous films of that “anything goes” period eventually ruined by, naturally, a busy body federal government with their prudish noses up in the air. Definitely not ”PC,” with it’s typical Neanderthal views towards race and women common at the time, but that isn’t why it wasn’t allowed to be rereleased with an edit here and there post-code, unlike many films from the period. Myrna would later become a hugely popular actress due to The Thin Man, with William Powell. It became a series of films, but the first, naturally, is the best. 0
I'm not sure if you were kidding, but I thought of her almost immediately for some reason. She's got a particular "I know what you want" sort of playfulness to her and mad confidence for her skill set. Unlike so many modern women that simply crave attention, she's got something going on under the surface too. A very talented young lady.
^ I'm stuck right now on classics, but at 57, Gina Gershon is still skating by marvelously on her looks. 60 year-old Dynasty and General Hospital star Emma Samms is as attractive as ever.
A classic beauty from the '60's and early '70's, Madeline Smith. She was British and a former model who ended up being cast in several pictures, most notably in Roger Moore's first Bond film, Live and Let Die. She's the chick in the title sequence after the opening scene. I think she's also in the film. Madeline might be more famous for appearing in several B movie horror films. One of the things I liked about her at the time is that she was an ardent believer in the "Burn the Bra!" movement. A great time to be alive. ;-)
Honor Blackman aka p***y Galore. She was also the original femme fatale on the Avengers before Emma Peel. She was an actual Judoka too and had trained in Judo for the Avengers but stuck with it and frequently did her own stunts and fight scenes. An interesting side note was that she was 38 when she starred in Goldfinger. A true classic
