Who was, is, the most handsome MAN of the 20th century?

[tjdee]

Did you say Cary Grant?

I knew you would.

[Blue-Jay]

1. Aside from me? Dom DeLuise.

[tjdee]

2. Now that is hot.

Moving gifs are so nifty!

[jdots]

34. Jim Varny damn it !

ok Huntz Hall yeah how about ? Mr. fuckin Rodgers,he was a love god......

[Kahuna]

3. Cary AND Rock.

A tie. When they both were in their early 30s they were hot, hot hot. :smoke: Of course, Cary aged well and remained hot into his latte 50s. Rock began to fall apart by his late 30s.

[tjdee]

19. And Rock, huh?

Hmm. I've only seen a couple of his films...he's certainly not hard to look at!
:hi:

[sundog]

4. too many to choose from

I'll have to get back to ya :hi:

ps: DW Griffith was not one of them ;)

[tjdee]

6. No, he wasn't!

:hi:

[rainy]

5. Paul Newman hands down

[leanin_green]

27. I second, he looks like my dad when he was young.

[Butterflies]

60. Oh yea. He was breath-taking when he was younger.

He looked incredible in Hud.

[Jessica]

69. My vote goes here ... definitely.

No man is more beautiful than this man. :9

[RedSpartan]

72. Unquestionably.

I agree. It's no contest.

[mahina]

7. Cary Grant and George Clooney.

But Cary Grant looks just like my Dad, so I'm going for Clooney.
I would pay to watch him take the rubbish out.
Yum.
AND he's a democrat, which is a requirement for the job.

[BlueJazz]

8. My Choice...

[NV Whino]

9. Well, it's hard to beat Archie Leach

But then there's
Johnny Depp (sp?) There's just something about that boy...
and Robert Mitchum
Marlan Brando 300 pounds ago
Laurence Olivier

I'll limit myself to those for now.

[Kahuna]

10. Great list of also rans. However, as you stated...

It's hard to beat Car..oops! Archie Leach. :shrug:

[tjdee]

16. They are all very good looking.

I think the percentage Archie wins by is about .0000034 .
:)

[Floogeldy]

11. MB

[mahina]

12. Is it possible to be really sexy AND stupid? I say no.

Hence no republicans.
Plus the extra chromosome makes them look kinda funny.
Six fingers...hmm.....webbed feet...hmm....

[arwalden]

13. Cary Grant, Montgomery Clift

[Rowdyboy]

32. Allen, We're still totally in synch....

The most beautiful man of the 20th century, the one man a young Elizabeth Taylor wanted but couldn't have, was Montgomery Clift

http://windbird.pe.kr/images/Montgomery%20Clift(aaaa).jpg

[arwalden]

45. He Puts The Dream In Dreamy...

... and those eyes... that smile... (sigh)... they melt your heart, quicken your pulse, raise your blood pressure, and make your 501's strategically snug.

[Rowdyboy]

51. I'd watch Raintree County again in a mili-second

if it was on today, just to see those eyes....And, yes, he does have the ability to make my 501's "strategicall snug"-LOL, Love that phrase! Must remember to use it thuis weekend!

[Reverend_Smitty]

14. I agree, I just saw him in a movie last night...

and he was so very hot! But I think that George Clooney is just as hot!

[mahina]

20. rawwrrr

yum. it's the sparkle in the eyes, both Cary and Clooney. They are so intelligent. That's super sexy.

[eleonora]

15. he kinda looks like George Clooney, you think?

n/t

[tjdee]

18. Clooney's a bit Gable-ish I think...

Gable was also hella hot.


He also had dimples.

[RoeBear]

17. I should think there would be someone saying

John F. Kennedy Jr.



What a shame that he's gone.

[mahina]

22. He was my classmate

:cry:

[merh]

65. {{hug}}

:hug:

[kodi]

21. robert redford

[mahina]

23. He was too pretty before

but now that he's older and a great Democrat, I'll say ok.

[Tikki]

24. Monty and Laurence....

Montgomery Clift


Laurence Harvey

[Behind the Aegis]

39. Montgomery Clift

That was the first name that popped in my head when I saw the title of the thread. Odd thing is, I have NEVER seen a movie with him in it. But, I have seen pictures of him and...DAMN, he was fine! The pic you posted is yummy! I feel we have been very lucky to have lots of hot guys! love the guys! :)

[asjr]

25. Tyrone Power

[mondo joe]

26. Paul Newman, JFK Jr, George Clooney

Honorable mention to:

Denzel Washington
Errol Flynn
Marlon Brando

[madison2000]

46. George Clooney, George Clooney, George Clooney, George Clooney

Enough said.

[mikehiggins]

28. Absolutely

A handsome man and a true gentleman.

There are lots of great looking men in the world (and even more great looking women) but handsome is as handsome does.

Cary Grant for sure.

[Dookus]

29. Grant's a god...

but I have to go with Gregory Peck

[AlGore-08.com]

30. Speaking of Peck(s)

:spank::spank::spank:

[Dookus]

35. hrmm....

red x's

[AlGore-08.com]

68. It's Ricardo Montalban, circa 1952

Shirtless, as he was in many of his publicity shots around that time...

[RadicalMom]

42. Me, too. My two favorite westerns are "The Big Country," and "Duel

In the Sun." Any woman(or man, I guess) with any female hormones would have to get a bit breathless watching him in that. Very Powerful sexuality, and I just happened to order those on Amazon a couple of hours ago. Must be getting vibes from beyond.

[blondeatlast]

54. Oooh, yeah.

My choice as well.

[progmom]

31. I'd like to second the nomination of Paul Newman

Such intelligence and humor sparkle in those eyes. Such a tremendous human being. He takes my breath away.



http://moviething.com/members/full/Newman,_Paul/161762.jpg

[ffm172]

56. I second that.

I loved him in "Cat on the hot tin roof"

[MrScorpio]

33. Steve McQueen, because you guys forgot about him

That was a handsome mutha fucka

[Rhiannon12866]

36. Either Cary Grant or Laurence Olivier

They don't make them like that, anymore.*sigh*

[roguevalley]

37. Tyrone Power was hot. Paul Newman is so cool it hurts my eyes to

look at him. Steve McQueen was the man. Sydney Poitier was dreamy.

[Rhiannon12866]

38. I agree about Tyrone Power

He was quite handsome. The others you mention are also quite good looking, but I'm sticking with Cary Grant and Laurence Olivier.:shrug:

[Squeech]

40. How about the musicians?

Frank Sinatra.

Miles Davis.

Chet Baker was considered a matinee idol in his day, proving that heroin chic was not just a phenomenon of the '90s.

But what do I know; I'm a guy.

[Andy_Stephenson]

41. Guy Madison

[Joe Power]

43. ME!

Or Paul Newman.

[snoochie]

44. Montgomery Clift

Cary Grant
Rock Hudson
Johnny Depp

It's very close, but Clift it is.

[salin]

49. I think the inclusion of Depp - is on mark.

only thing to get past is that 21 Jump Street thing.

[AmandaRuth]

47. Billy Dee Williams

very underrated, check out Empire Strikes Back.

[Shopaholic]

48. And the answer is:

Cary Grant of course!

[onecent]

50. Jon Stewart

[Maddy McCall]

52. Dean Martin.

[blondeatlast]

53. Gregory Peck, who looked strikingly like my dad. nt

[Beer Snob-50]

55. according to the women of du....

pirate looks at 50 in a landslide.

"Studly" said one.

"Oh my Gawd he is hot!!" said another

and this one from a hot canadian poster (aren't tehy all!) "He puts the maple back into my leaf!"


There you have it folks!!

[ffm172]

57. Denzel Washington

I have to admit, I drool every time I see him

[freestyle]

58. Sidney Poitier, such class and presence n/t

[ScreamingMeemie]

59. Ummm...hello? My husband, the wonderful, talented...and hot

MrG.




With his Mini Me. :hi:

[antigone382]

66. Ooh! With men like that in your life, what do you have to be grumpy about?

Both are adorable!

[loudestchick]

79. Mrs G! I had no idea! Do you let him out of the house?

[redqueen]

61. This guy!

[Lavender Brown]

78. Who is that, rq?

[redqueen]

81. That there is Josh Homme, frontman for Queens of the Stone Age.

SsssssssssMOKIN!

[edbermac]

62. John Merrick - the Elephant Man...

Hey, beauty is only skin-deep...

[Earth_First]

63. Benny Hill

[merh]

64. Cary Grant, George Clooney

James Garner, Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Robert Mitchum, Robert Holden, Rock Hudson - so many, but not that many left!

Clark Gable and John Kennedy, Jr.

[NewJeffCT]

67. Interesting - the men's list (so far) has a lot more repetition

I think there is more standard definition of handsome in a guy than beautiful in a woman, no?

[Love Bug]

70. I vote for Cary Grant, too

Not only was he handsome, he also was very funny and could laugh at himself. Endearing qualities, n'est-ce pas?

[Glenda]

71. Chris Cornell of Audioslave / Soundgarden

[VelmaD]

73. A young Marlin Brando

*drooooooool*

Johnny Depp is also drool-worthy. Hell, it's hard to argue with anyone mentioned so far with the exception of Jim Varney. :)

[Patiod]

74. Redford and O'Toole (although Grant is Top 5, for sure)

Just finished a biography of Grant, and he certainly was a complicated person. (Cary Grant : A Biography -- by Marc Eliot). All you Grant fans here might enjoy it.

In real life, I've always had a weakness for Italian men, but my two picks for handsomest would be Redford and O'Toole, both Anglo types.

I'd list Sam Elliott, but you asked for "handsomest", and a lot of Sam's appeal is that amazing voice.

[crispini]

76. Yum, Peter O'Toole.

Just yum, yum, yum.

[joeybee12]

75. Four-way Tie! Cary Grant, Omar Sharif, Marcello Mastrionni, and Laird

Hamilton!

[MISSDem]

77. Gregory Peck

[RedCloud]

80. It's my five year old.

He barely qualifies age wise.

At the age of two, five coeds found him irresistible at a restaurant and invited him over to their table.

A month ago, some babe in a corvette pulls up and winks at him.

He has had at least 1,000 women in my presence say that he is handsome. It goes like this,"What a handsome young man!" My son turns red again. To save face for him I always quip, "Thank you! And you should check out my little guy while you are it!!"
