Had seen Ms. Taylor as a child in 'National Velvet', through 'Little Women' and the two 'Father of the Bride' movies. But then she looked out as 'Rowena' from behind a screen of beads (?) in 'Ivanhoe' and I became hopelessly enthranced.
@Mauricio Durón You're not alone .. that was the first time seeing her on screen as well .. thing was even in person she was so tiny almost childlike .. from her voice to her Ikon look caught like a deer in headlights they was no one else like her, truth was you were seeing the real thing ..not like the look of AI today!😊
1. Vivien Leigh, who despised people who praised her beauty. She wanted to be considered only for her work as an Actor 2. Hedy Lamarr, spectacularly beautiful, who became a scientist and her inventions in Spread Spectrum are now part of our WiFi and mobile phones 3. Ingrid Bergman, who was a star in Hollywood and offered her competencies to an unknown Italian Director, Roberto Rossellini, then shot with him in Stromboli, Sicily, under difficult conditions 4. Audrey Hepburn, who overcame hunger in the Netherlands during WW2 and went on to create her unique style, still fashionable today; the first to work as a celebrity for UNICEF in Africa✨ Many more can be presented and remembered. We like them all
Et Elizabeth Taylor qui combatu avec son association contre le sida et pour aider les malades . Une grande femme talentueuse et sa beautè a couper le souffle.
Whatever order you put them in, they are all beautiful and had a certain magic quality. Thanks so much for including them and for all the work you put into it.
Congrats!!!! Excelent taste. Vivien is my number one too. But Audrey should be number two..and Ingrid number three. Just my opinion. Wonderful video!!!!!!.
@@loisaustin6200 I agree with you with Joan. I never saw her as a beauty. But Rita ...I think..was the most sexy actress of all. Watch her in "You were never lovelier" 1942 with Astaire. I dont know if she was soooo beautiful but she had a sexy way to move and speak. Of course thats my opinion. I respect yours. But one point is clear. Nobody can put Joan in same level with Vivien..Heddy...Audrey...etc etc.
@@dguri I can tell you more. My grandfather who is French was in a cruise ship..in 1953..from Cuba to Miami with his parents. He was a out 15 years old. In other table they saw Rita..and my grandfather asked her to dance a tango. Rita was happy..and they danced!!!!. He is 82 now..and he still remember that dancing with her it was like dancing with a feather. She was very light and he felt that. It is one of our family greatest story!!!!.
excellent..very well put together...pure class.....not to harp like everyone does these decades, but where has the charm, class and beauty gone...RUclips and TikTok and cable crap...
Romy Schneider Vivien Leight Sophia Loren Nathalie Wood Audrey Hepburn Catherine Hepburn Linda Christian Grace Kelly Elisabeth Taylor Linda Gray Olivia de Havilland Gina Lolobrigida Claudia Cardinale Mele Oberon Marylin Monroe Ingrid Bergman Catherine Deneuve....Alls Actress is very Beautiful !!!🤗 .
Ava Garder, Liz Taylor, Gene Tierney , Vivien Leigh and Hedy Lamarr are the most beautiful woman of golden era but Marilyn Monroe was real life Aphrodite. My favourite all of time is Monica Bellucci.
The most iconic among them are these three actresses which most people will recognize even without ever watching their films. 1. Marilyn Monroe 2. Audrey Hepburn 3. Elizabeth Taylor My personal favourite actress is Elizabeth Taylor❤.
I strongly agree with you. She was a very beautiful woman with and without makeup. She had great talent. She was considered at her time the black Marilyn Monroe.
James Myers, Im with you. Maureen O'Hara, the most gorgeous of all. That red Hair and those green eyes, and those Swashbuckling movies with Errol Flynn. WOW? Also all the movies with John Wayne. Best Actress as well. In my opinion. They dont make movies like those anymore. And the actresses of today dont even come close. Except my favorite Sandra Bullock, and my next favorite Emilia Clark. The others, just a bunch of egotist.
When one of the heads of makeup at MGM was asked whom he believed the most beautiful actress he ever worked with was, he unhesitatingly replied "Jeanette MacDonald". Someone all but forgotten today though incredibly popular in her day. She truly was stunningly beautiful.
@@christhornton1785 With Covid many a neglected film and actor have been re-discovered online by housebound movie lovers. One hopes Jeanette MacDonald will be one them. Her 1934's "Merry Widow" is widely considered on of the screen's great musicals, while her 1937's "Maytime" (one of MGM's big hits of that year) must surely rank as one of the most romantic films ever made (James Cameron must have thought so as he shamelessly copied the plot verbatim for his mega hit "Titanic"). Truly a lady who deserves re-evaluation (as you might have guessed - I'm a fan).
You're lineup is very good, but Liz tops my list, then Marilyn, Vivien, then Sophia. I would have put Carol Baker, Jean Harlow, and Yvonne DeCarlo on the list in lieu of Joan, Ava, and Natalie. But, that's just my opinion and as they say: beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
@@djaoudagherram what for did you write it to me? Did I ask you about your opinion? If you want to tell everybody about your love for Liz , write it as your own comment but not as an answer to mine. Sorry
All were beautiful but I think Grace,Ava and Liz were the most beautiful of all times . Beauty is subjective of course but physicallyI can't see someone more beautiful than these 3 .
As a lifetime lover of cinema, here are MY Top 10 all-time most beautiful actresses, 1927 to 1960. ---------10. Rita Hayworth----------9. Lauren, " Betty", Bacall. ---------8. Dolores Del Rio------------7. Yvonne De Carlo----------6. Frances Farmer----------5. Cyd Charisse---------4. Hedy Lamar-------3. Gene Tierney ---------2. Ava Gardner ---------And, MY # 1 : The Glorious Elizabeth Taylor, especially in the later 50's roles. -----------------MJL, 76 y/o
Rest In Peace Gina lolobrigida
1927-2023 ❤️
To see Elizabeth Taylor in her prime during the early sixties in the flesh was beyond beautiful you literally couldn't take your eyes off her !!
Had seen Ms. Taylor as a child in 'National Velvet', through 'Little Women' and the two 'Father of the Bride' movies.
But then she looked out as 'Rowena' from behind a screen of beads (?) in 'Ivanhoe' and I became hopelessly enthranced.

Her prime was from 1955 to 1970.
@@yvonneplant9434
Wouldn't dismiss Rowena earlier, or already from 'A Place in the Sun', 'The Last Time I Saw París' and 'Intermezzo'.
Elizabeth Taylor.....#1
A N Y Year, past or present
Elizabeth Taylor, Vivien Leigh, Gene Tierney ,Hedy Lamar my favourite very beautiful
Four of the most beautiful faces ever. Throw in Salma Hayek and the list is complete!!!!!
Ava Gardner, Elizabeth Taylor, Vivien Leigh and Monica Bellucci are the most naturally beautiful women the world has ever seen.
We have the same taste !
Add Claudia Cardinale to the list. She was stunning.
The most naturalliy beautiful women❤❤❤❤❤🌎🌞
All of them were beautiful... Real and natural beauty! 💕💕💕💕
Top 3 for me:
Elizabeth Taylor
Ava Gardner
Sofia Loren.
All timeless beauties …
Claudia Cardinale and Gene Tierney blow them all away. And Sophia Loren even though I dislike her.
He got it spot on, Vivien Leigh was gorgeous looking in her prime, the only woman who was close was heddy Lamar , because they looked like sisters.
I NEVER thought Sophia Loren was even cute. I looked like her before my nose job.
Elizabeth Taylor was the most beautiful ,the eyes have it all and hers certainly did,she was beautiful inside and out .
These women were so distinctively beautiful and more authentic than movie stars today. I miss these outstanding types.
Except for Joan Crawford. She was a good actress but definitely no beauty.
Beautiful music...Beautiful ladies.
Your pick for #1 is right on. Vivien Leigh, none more beautiful.
❤❤❤
I love every SINGLE ONE of them , thanks for the list and video.
How lucky we to see films of these incredible women, beautifully lit, photographed and directed.
1. Vivien Leigh, who despised people who praised her beauty. She wanted to be considered only for her work as an Actor 2. Hedy Lamarr, spectacularly beautiful, who became a scientist and her inventions in Spread Spectrum are now part of our WiFi and mobile phones 3.

You pretty much got right the top beauties.
Will not attempt to add my own list.
Et Elizabeth Taylor qui combatu avec son association contre le sida et pour aider les malades .
Une grande femme talentueuse et sa beautè a couper le souffle.
No repulsive ink, no fake parts, gotta love it. ❤
Whatever order you put them in, they are all beautiful and had a certain magic quality. Thanks so much for including them and for all the work you put into it.
Hedy Lamar #1.
"That's Hedley"!
@@christhornton1785 I think he meant that for him Hedy Lamarr comes first
I gree
@@Breno_22 Yes. I got that. Just trying to bring a little levity into the conversation, as what I said was an homage to "Blazing Saddles".
Vivien was more beautiful. Hedy looked too mannequin like in her photos.
Liz, Audrey, Grace, Natalie - no argument.
1▬ Rita Hayworth ◘ - 2 Hedy Lamarr • - 3 Yvonne De Carlo (top 3)
4 Linda Darnell - 5 Lana Turner - 6 Claudia Cardinale - 7 Ann Sheridan - 8 Rachel Ward - 9 Marlene Dietrich - 10 Joan Crawford
Congrats!!!! Excelent taste. Vivien is my number one too. But Audrey should be number two..and Ingrid number three. Just my opinion. Wonderful video!!!!!!.
Joan Crawford and Rita Hayworth were neither ever great beauties to me.

Elizabeth Taylor definitely #1
All of these ladies were very beautiful but I believe that Romy Schneider and Catherine Deneuve were also stunning!!!
I agree with you completely about Catherine Deneuve, although I am not really sure that she belongs on a list of classic actresses.
Romy was very beautiful. I love her. But I guess he made the video about actresses of the 30..40..50.
Yvonne De Carlo played in a movie with Clark Gable; talk about a beautiful woman. Rita Hayworth, Joan Collins to before Dynasty.
I miss GRETA GARBO on the list - she was very beautiful and she was called divine.
Vivien leigh, divine!!!
I agree Vivian Leigh number 1.
A good choice. In my opinion: 1.Ava, 2.Hedy, 3.Vivien, 4.Marilyn, 5.Elizabeth
excellent..very well put together...pure class.....not to harp like everyone does these decades, but where has the charm, class and beauty gone...RUclips and TikTok and cable crap...
They all have one thing in common they are gorgeous. Awm
Thanks for Vivien - a goddess.
I agree with this list. Well done.
Lamar, Tierney, after that it doesn't matter. Personal fave, Claudia Cardinale.
The Queen Elizabeth Taylor
Vivien Leigh-a fragile beauty, and her beauty changes, so many different looks.
She was most beautiful in Gone With The Wind.
So right.
Vivien Leigh with all those different
Faces,fhats why she is the no l, to
Me she is the only woman who can scew her face up and still look gorgeous.
Romy Schneider Vivien Leight Sophia Loren Nathalie Wood Audrey Hepburn Catherine Hepburn Linda Christian Grace Kelly Elisabeth Taylor Linda Gray Olivia de Havilland Gina Lolobrigida Claudia Cardinale Mele Oberon Marylin Monroe Ingrid Bergman Catherine Deneuve....Alls Actress is very Beautiful !!!🤗
.
Good choices; I would have Ava Gardner #1.
Ava Garder, Liz Taylor, Gene Tierney , Vivien Leigh and Hedy Lamarr are the most beautiful woman of golden era
but Marilyn Monroe was real life Aphrodite. My favourite all of time is Monica Bellucci.
The most iconic among them are these three actresses which most people will recognize even without ever watching their films.
1. Marilyn Monroe
2. Audrey Hepburn
3. Elizabeth Taylor
My personal favourite actress is Elizabeth Taylor❤.
Grace, Audrey,and Inglis should be in the top 5.
I would add Raquel Welch, Jacqueline Bisset, Carol Lombard, Catherine Denueve and Leslie Caron to that list.
Yes but Raquel and Jaqueline came a little later on.
Most beautiful
All Of them are different but they are beautiful.⭐❤️
@@djaoudagherram ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have my favorites....Eva Marie Saint & Rita Moreno! Gorgeous, even today!
TOUCHE MISS TAYLOR AND MISS LEIGH, DEVASTATINGLY BEAUTIFUL 😍
My personal top 10 is. 1) Heddy 2) Lyz Taylor, 3) Ava 4) Ingrid 5) Audrey 6) Vivien 7) Sophia 8) Marilyn 9) Grace 10) Claudia Cardinale.
Good list, but what about the divine, Greta Garbo!!!!!!!?
Dorothy Dandridge should have been in this list
I strongly agree with you. She was a very beautiful woman with and without makeup. She had great talent. She was considered at her time the black Marilyn Monroe.
Liz Taylor at the top. All others are 2nd to her.
Nah, Ava Gardner, Liz Taylor and Vivien Leigh are all equally the most beautiful.
@@maya_jones3411 And Gene Tierney. She was a living doll.
Number 1 for me would have been Maureen O'Hara but still an excellent list :)
James Myers, Im with you. Maureen O'Hara, the most gorgeous of all. That red Hair and those green eyes, and those Swashbuckling movies with Errol Flynn. WOW? Also all the movies with John Wayne.

VivianLeigh
There is one major omission from the list - Linda Darnell. She was a raging beauty in her short lifetime.
Yes she was so tragic how she passed 😰
All of them were beautiful women. With all the makeup, of course, they were even more beautiful.
vivian leigh is the most beautiful
Definitivamente la reina de todas!!
When one of the heads of makeup at MGM was asked whom he believed the most beautiful actress he ever worked with was, he unhesitatingly replied "Jeanette MacDonald". Someone all but forgotten today though incredibly popular in her day. She truly was stunningly beautiful.
I could be crossing up my stars but I think she was blossom rock's sister. 🤔

Marilyn Monroe #1
Excellent list. With only 20, some deserving beauties are going to be left off. I would add Merle Oberon.
Vivien Leigh
All were beautiful, but IMO Elizabeth Taylor puts them all in the shade. Ava Gardner comes very close.
VIVIEN LEIGH MY FAVORITE NOW AND FOREVER
Marilyn Monroe
I miss the days when the LADIES were classy and full of grace and charm. Unlike most women of today.
I love all these classic beauties ❤❤❤❤
My all time favorite is hands down..Grace Kelly!
I would have placed Hedy Lamarr at the top, but also added Linda Darnell and Virna Lisi.
I'd say 1) Vivien 2) Ingrid 3) Liz. I sometimes change my mind about Ingrid and Liz.
I am glad you are sticking with Vivien Leigh as no l,. Because nobody beats her for looks.
Vivien Leigh is the best of the best. I agree with you completely.

Great choices
It is from their eyes. The love, the passion coming from their eyes. Yes, maybe just acting, but still…
You said it ! They show so much emotion 😍♥️
I love the diversity👀🙃
2:53 😍 Gene Tierney in 🎥 Sundown is breathtaking 👌, unsurpassed to this day.
All were beautiful but I think Grace,Ava and Liz were the most beautiful of all times . Beauty is subjective of course but physicallyI can't see someone more beautiful than these 3 .

Numéro1 toujours la belle et élégante Grace Kelly, 2 Ava Gadner, 3 Catherine Deneuve
Ava Gardner.
Claudia
Rita Hayworth is my # 1 pick. But i love em all
I'd make room for Brigitte Bardot, Lee Remick, and Maureen O'Sullivan.
Elizabeth 1
Glad you said your personal rank. Good choices. But Joan Crawford? There are others.
Yes!
Her and Audrey were my only question marks.
Gene Tierney is by far the best looking woman in this list.
There are many beautiful woman. But there was only one Elizabeth Taylor. Hands down the most beautiful woman in the history of Hollywood.
great list, i would like to say that raquel welch deserve a place among those beautifull ladies
👍👍
In my opinion.
Hedy Lamarr
Gene Tierney
Grace Kelly
Don't forget merle oberon
Check out The Naked Jungle and tell me Eleanor Parker doesn't belong on this list.
Missing Deborah Kerr and Janet Leigh. They beat Joan Crawford and Natalie Wood hands-down.
I agree.
Vivien Leigh beat them all for looks
Hands down
Natalie Wood had a distinct beauty! These video clips don't do her justice! Her smile and laugh were amazing!!! Her overall beauty was captivating!!!
If I'm one of the invited guests in a ball with all of this Beautiful and Pretty Princesses, I will spend the whole night with Audrey Hepburn...
