Katharine Hepburn.
Yep. I know she’s not dead yet, but close enough.
Oh, and Lillian Gish. And Colleen Moore, definitely. Yum.
Grace Kelly appetizer, Rita Hayworth main course, and Julie Andrews as dessert (I know she’s not dead, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to boink her now, back in the 60’s though…)
Wow! Someone who’s not only a Lillian Gish and Colleen Moore fan, but knows how to correctly spell Katharine Hepburn’s name—I am impressed.
Grace Kelly always had that icy vibe that didn’t really appeal to me. She was attractive enough, but just a bit chilly. Whoever said Eva Gardner will have to share - and from what I’ve read and heard, she wouldn’t have thought twice about it.
Well, since de Guiche paid homage to you in one of her 1912 flicks (well, the title did, at the very least), I figured there’d be a little bit o’ camera karma floating about this thread.
I’ll see your Tyrone Power and raise you a Cary Grant.
Shoot, I come in here to name Errol Flynn and Tyrone Power, and I see I have to stand in line. Well, while I’m waiting for my turn, I’ll get a little familiar with Marlon Brando fresh off the set of Streetcar.
You mean Archibald? That old Leach? 
Jennifer Jones, especially when she looked like this .
Cary Grant or Glenn Miller.
Ooo, oo, I forgot – dibs on William Holden.
Glenn Miller, Hmmmmmm interesting…
Add a young Don Ameche to my list please.
and Jon-Erik Hexum (sniff, I was SO in love with him when I was 10.)
Let me be the first to drop a glove near “Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison”-era Robert Mitchum. Even if he just glances at the glove, looks at me, and grunts, “You expecting me to pick that up?”
If I didn’t feel up to tackling the formidable Mr. Mitchum, there’s always Leslie Howard, John Loder, and 1930’s-era Joseph Cotten – and those aren’t bad fall-backs!
I’d also volunteer to be James Dean’s designated driver any night…
Yep.
Only she could get away with “Stroke it for me, stroke it for me” and not be skanky.
Lauren Bacall. As she looked in “The Big Sleep.”
Would it be gauche to nominate the first Lassie?
Helen of Troy
Clark Gable, c. 1936.
I can’t believe he hasn’t been mentioned yet!
