Bela Lugosi is one of the greatest actors to ever play the role of Dracula and his performances are still influential in how the character is portrayed today. I've watched a good deal of his work but there are still many of his films I haven't watched yet. Some of mine favorites include The Return of the Vampire, Island of Lost Souls, Son of Frankenstein, White Zombie, The Body Snatcher, Mark of the Vampire, The Black Cat (1934), The Devil Bat and The Ghost of Frankenstein.

Vincent Price another of my all time favorite horror movie actors his career was truly spectacular. Few other actors have a presence and charisma on screen like he did. Many of his horror films represent what is truly fun and wonderful about the genre from The Tingler to House of Wax.    TCM did this vignette about him narrated by John Waters I thought was really cool.

I've seen Gilda and I've seen The Lady from Shanghai, and they are both great movies that show just how awesome Classic Hollywood is. But my favorite Rita Hayworth movie is Salome. I would LOVE to see it again. Interesting that Rita's purported "replacement" (in Harry Cohn's eyes) was Kim Novak, who sports a look very similar to Rita's in her then-hubby Welles's Lady From Shanghai. |

MechaGodzilla, as always these are amazing. Errol Flynn and his unadorned perfection--my God. Almost leaves every other picture here in the shade...and that's saying a lot considering how gorgeous these photos are. Thanks again. There's so much to drink in, but let me throw out some quick thoughts:
Ann-Margret (thanks DupipR!) and Raquel--great images from the swingin' '60s, and both sex symbols went on to have long careers.
Would love to see more '60s pics--I used to have some collections of stills, lobby cards, etc., from the late 60s and 70s but I guess I discarded them along the way. I've been scouring eBay to resurrect my collection.
Gina -- lovely, more down-to-earth than Sophia (whom I like too), and during her acting career an underrated actress/comedienne.
Lana--as mentioned, one of my favorites. Interesting career metamorphosis from glamour queen into the later, very popular 1950s "soap opera" films you mentioned.
Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse-- amazing. They were also incredible (if less showy) in Brigadoon. And has anyone ever looked better in vibrant green than Cyd did?!
Many thanks for the additional Salome pics. I really, really need to see this movie.

I did not know that about Kim Novak - but yet Kim Novak and Rita Hayworth became great friends during the production of Pal Joey of which Rita, Kim, and Frank Sinatra starred in. Thanks for sharing that information.  |

Jane Fonda My favorite picture of her. Daughter of Henry Fonda, one of the most unique actresses ever set on the Silver Screen - Her credits includes - Nine to Five (1980) as Judy Bernly, The China Syndrome (1979) as Kimberly Wells, Fun with Dick and Jane (1977) as Jane Harper, and as well On Golden Pond with her Father Henry Fonda (1981) as Chelsea Thayer Wayne. Earlier hits includes: Cat Ballou (1965) as Cat Ballou, Barefoot in the Park (1967) as Corie Bratter, and the Sci-Fi Classic from 1968 - Barbarella as Barbarella.

Rank of 007 Actors from Best to Worst1 - Sean Connery Made 6 Bond Films and 1 Unofficial Dr. No (1962) From Russia with Love (1963) Goldfinger (1964) Thunderball (1965) You Only Live Twice (1967) Diamond are Forever (1971) Never Say Never Again (1983) - Unofficial 2 - Pierce Brosnan  Made 4 Bond Films and I wished he made more.GoldenEye (1995) Tomorrow Never Dies (1997) World Is Not Enough (1999) Die Another Day (2002) 3 - Roger Moore Made 7 Bond Films, the most so far.Live and Let Die (1973) The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) Moonraker (1979) For Your Eyes Only (1981) Octopussy (1983) A View to a Kill (1985) 4 - George Lazenby  Made 1 Bond FilmOn Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) 5 - Timothy Dalton Made 2 Bond FilmsThe Living Daylights (1987) Licence to Kill (1989) I only recognized these 5 actors that played the part of 007, James Bond and I understand that I don't care for Daniel Craig as James Bond because he did not play the part right and I don't considered him English Enough to play the part of the dashing and debonair Bond.
