If I had to pick one girl from the golden era

[SteveDeco]

It would have to be Rita Hayworth for me.

(Big Picture)

 

[ImmortalChaos]

Hmm

Virginia O'Brien, then Hedy Lamarr for me

 

[WH1]

Suzy Parker
Dame Wendy Hiller
Katherine Hepburn
Sophia Loren

 

[shoelessjoe]

Donna Reed

Maybe it's just me, but I always thought Donna Reed was gorgeous.

No, it's not just you ... what an absolute doll-face ...

 

[Two Gun Bob]

All these awesome ladies, I tip my hat to them...

... but there can be ONLY ONE:

Need I say more?

 

[freebird]

June Allyson or Myrna Loy

 

[TraderRic]

I'd have to go with Veronica Lake and Marlene Dietrich. Although, I agree with Matt Deckard on Diana Rigg. She was my first love and my wife still teases me about it. I can't watch the end of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" without shedding a quiet tear.

 

[SweetieStarr]

Gene Kelly is my pick.
(Although I also do like Cary's style and Clark's manliness.)

 

[GWD]

I've been in love with Audrey Hepburn all my life. A wonderful actress and humanitarian!

I try to get my Daughters to emulate her life.

 

[Zemke Fan]

Audrey...

I could have danced all night...
I could have danced all night...
And still have begged for more...
I could have spread my wings,
And done a thousand things I've never done before...

Ahhh!

There's actually a cute little book on the subject!

It's not as corny as it sounds

For some reason my daughter has loved Audrey Hepburn since she was really little, without any prompting from me. (Other than my love of classic movies and music) She loves "My Fair Lady" and "Breakfast at Tiffanys" even now and she's about to graduate college.

I guess she just has good taste, like her father. lol

Really? I'll have to pick it up! Thanks!

 

[Nathan Dodge]

Gail Patrick---Wow!

She stayed in my mind the second I saw her. She's on my short list along with Carole Lombard, Irene Dunne, and Ginger Rogers.

 

[Custom79]

I'm with GWD...

Audrey Hepburn

if I could choose only one, there is only one.

C79

 

[glamour-girl]

I don't know the name of the golden era girl that I would pick. I don't even know how she looks like. Why? Because I wouldn't pick some filmstar, but some ordinary, next-door golden era girl.
Like those:

Bernard, you'r my kind of guy !!!:eusa_clap :eusa_clap :eusa_clap

 

[Tomasso]

Gene Kelly is my pick.

Sweetie, we're talking about chicks here.


Unless you're outing these guys.

 

[Lefty]

Most of the women in these 18 pages looked wonderful between their teenage years and their early thirties, but Audrey and, especially Sophia (born in 1934!) looked better into their 60s than most people do in their 40s. As spitfire posted more than a year ago, she was great yesterday, and she's still great today.

 

[Tiger Pilot]

Lauren Bacall!

Two Gun Bob had it exactly right. Plus that wonderful voice. She also aged extremely well.

[Mossyrock]

I've always had a thing for Claire Trevor, especially in Stagecoach with John Wayne.
