Oh, there were/are SO many of them!!

My favorites:
Gary Cooper (actually, I liked his looks)
Sophia Loren
Bette Davis
Laurence Olivier (sigh!)
Mickey Rooney (good actor, and his postive energy made him look sexy)
Maureen O'Hara (also one of the prettiest, I think)
Barbara Stanwyck
Kim Novak (maybe more 'presence' than actual talent)
Greta Garbo (presence and beauty)
Yul Brynner
Lee Marvin
Jimmy Stewart
Charlton Heston (and the sexiest voice around!)
Vincent Price (not only a master in his field, but VERY handsome as a young man!)


And, no, I didn't forget Katherine Hepburn and Bogart. They simply weren't favorites.

These actors were all before my time, but I was a old movie junkie as a kid, and these remain the periods that fascinate me the most.

I loved Gregory Peck in Roman Holiday, he was just so...I don't know, kind of sassy.
I love Cary Grant in An Affair to Remember, such a player & then turns out to be so in love & humbled.
I love many Marilyn Monroe movies, especially How to Marry a Millionaire & Niagara, such opposing roles.

Oh I don't know, I really like classic movies. I don't watch them all the time but I gotta say, now that I've gotten rid of cable, I REALLY miss TCM, so much. Old movies are just so cozy w/their fuzzy film quality & sound quality, it's so unique.
