She is in Bridge to Terabithia, Hitchhikers Guide to the galaxy and the movie (i'm boycotting because they completely changed what is actually a true story) yes man.
She is very pretty.
I'm right there with you on this one buddy! Nice...Quote:

she was in Tin man too, that was great, and here sister is in bones which I am completly addicted to :blush: :D

Mono, you have taste and discernment.:thumbs_up
Thank you. I think I would do just about anything to bring back Audrey Hepburn, but only on the condition that she exchanged that famous dress she wore on Breakfast at Tiffany's for this one:Quote:

Looks like I'll have to settle for Tippi Then;)
That is right - we did way back, was it a year ago?...afterall this thread now has about 45 pages. I didn't realise this was the original "Celebrity Crushes" thread.:lol:Quote:

Ingrid Bergman
What I'd give to look like either of them...
I agree *C*C*. I especially love/admire Ingrid Bergman. I am 'straight as an arrow' too; however, I think when a woman can admire the beauty of another woman that shows a great sense of self confidence/security within themselves. I just might post a few woman I highly admire and think beautiful, too. I thought Grace Kelly had amazing looks - such beauty and class she had. You are totally right on that one - Hitchcock picked some gorgeous leading ladies.
Keira has a beautiful face
On the subject of actresses from a earlier time - Edie Doyle from "On the Waterfront"
unfortunately I cant find a pic to do her justice
Hey Kilted, do you mean Eva Marie Saint? She was the actress who played Edie, I believe. I think if you look around online, you could find plenty of photos of her as she looked back then; of course, now she is much older. She still acts, I think. She was always a great actress.Quote:

Great film! One of my all-time favorites.
Yes that's the one Janine. Good choice kilt :thumbs_up
I always liked her; I think she was and is a very good actress. OTWF was her introductory role and she nailed it perfectly.Quote:

I have fallen in love with this man. I only discovered him on the internet whilst searching for Camelot stuff. What an absolutely stunning voice, and he's so sexy.......:blush:

Just gorgeous.
Wessexgirl,Checked him out and he is cute. I just read that he is 38 and has 5 kids. He mentions the 5 kids on the Today Show segment. I loved "Camelot"; I own the old version with Richard Harris playing King A...love it so much; I saw him onstage playing the role with Vanesa Redgrave - wonderful! I forgot now who played Lance back then, but he was awfully cute.Quote:

(Probably my favourite one.)
Slow Hands
Public Pervert
Stella was a Diver and She was Always Down
Mammoth
Also, doesn't Paul Bank's voice remind you a little of Ian Curtis? (Joy Division.)
I think a lot of Interpol reminds me of Joy DivisionQuote:

hehe not really but yeah I'm sure that with out JoyDiv there wouldn't be any Interpol, Editors, or Stellastarr*.
I, personally, like them all!
:yawnb:
Less Interpol discussion, more pics! :D
After just watching The DaVinci Code, I realized how drawn to Audrey Tautou (Sophie Neveu) I was. Some pics:

She has a very pretty smile if you ask me.
Riesa, this cracks me up every time I look at it! :lol:Quote:

I love that dog, but if we are allowed cartoons, can I have Garfield too please? He's surely a precursor of Brian, in the sense that the-animal-is- smarter-than-the-human kind of way. He's so laid-back and laconic, with a piercing cynicism if I remember correctly. I think he's lazier than Brian though, it's been some time since I've seen him.Quote:

Family
Over the course of the strip, Gafield has shared information on members of his family:
Uncle Arno Known for saying, "Life is like a festival; you have to get out there and enjoy it." He was run over by a parade.[15]
Uncle Barney Once went to the vet and came back as Garfield's Aunt Bernice.[16]
Uncle Berle Described as crazy and thought he was a dog. He always chased himself up trees and was constantly exhausted as a result.[17]
Uncle Bernie Coined the phrases, "Never listen for a train by putting your ear on a train track," and "Curiosity killed the cat," in that order.[18]
Uncle Bob Used to say, "Slow down, take it easy," before being hit by a bus.[19]
Uncle Ed Described as crazy, he liked to sniff waffle irons, and his face was used for tic-tac-toe games.[20] He also always said, "Never belch out loud," and blew out an eyeball one day.[21] However, this may be a different Uncle Ed.
Aunt Edna Used to say, "Let a smile be your umbrella," until her dentures were blown clean through the garage door by a bolt of lightning.[22] She also married a hyena.[23]
Aunt Evelyn Plucked all her hair from her body to stop shedding. She currently resides in L.A., with a family that thinks she is a chihuahua.[24]
Uncle Harry He lived in a gas plant in Gas City, Indiana. He was a famous mouser, eventually chasing a mouse into Tank #2. He is now a paperweight in Bayonne, New Jersey.[25]
Uncle Hubert Once caught a 30-pound canary in Chicago, and was last spotted over Dallas, Texas. For this reason, Garfield does not chase birds.[26]
Uncle Leo Always had a smile until an incident with denture weevils.[27]
Uncle Morty Was killed by his gluttony, after trying to take a papaya from a silverback gorilla.[28]
Uncle Nick Loved to destroy things and used to eat chickens whole. There are two conflicting statements to his current status, however. In one strip, it is said that he tried to swallow an ostrich after he mistook it for a chicken, with his last words being, "That's the biggest chicken I ever saw."[29] In another, it is stated that he is presently a postal employee in Chicago.[30]
Uncle Patrick Famous for the quote, "I regret that I have but nine lives to give to my country."[31]
Great Uncle Ralph The only mention of Great Uncle Ralph claims he was a warthog.[32]
Aunt Reba Garfield reacts with her name when Jon revealed that his tennis racket was strung with catgut.[33]
Uncle Roy Said to be weird, he underwent a species change operation that transformed him into a dog; He later chased himself to death.[34]
There are also two unnamed uncles and one great uncle. One uncle went to the vet once and had his brain replaced with that of a chicken. The rest of his life was spent sitting on eggs in grocery stores.[35] Another uncle used to play with yarn, and is now a pattern in an angora sweater.[36] The great uncle was a lion who ate a sick monkey.[37]
Cousin Sly - A mouser. Appeared in Garfield on the Town.
Raoul - Garfield's half-brother, a mouser.
He looks a bit like my daughter's cat, and an old friendly cat of my neighbours, called Dave!
Audrey Tatou is lovely. Have you seen Amelie?Quote:
