Jimmy Stewart looks and sounds to me just like my grandfather. They were cousins. It makes watching his movies a slightly more interesting experience.

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

As my German teacher used to say when she covered Greek mythology: "They sieged Troy for 10 years - why they stayed so long I will never understand. By that point Helen must have been quite used up and wasted. Life was rough in those days."

How would that be cheating MiM?

Well, I mean, Murphy was great, but when she was alive, she was the same age as me. So it's not really in line with the black and white pictures answers if you know what I mean.

I didn't want to be number three or four to say Audrey Hepburn.

I also thought of Laura Petrie. But MTM isn't dead either.  :P

One of the Tsar Nicholas II's daughters (not Anastasia, an older one) was shockingly hot for her time.  Not sure I'd vote for her, but I thought I'd give her a mention at least.

Louise Brooks  :worthy:

I was going to name her as my silent movie jest; but I thought Anna May Wong might draw out Ide if he's lurking.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

I talked to him, he's just taking a break. He's done it before. He'll come back someday.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
