    Just for fun - a countdown of who I think are the most beautiful actresses from Hollywood's studio era (actresses included must have a film debut pre-1960). Please remember that I can only work with what I've got. If some legendary beauty isn't in this video then odds are that I don't have any of her films and was therefore unable to include her, or maybe I just didn't want to include her because I find others more beautiful. This video is just a bit of fun and should not be taken seriously. Beauty is subjective, there is no definitive list. These are just my preferences.

      Back then, women were viewed as second class citizens. What's your definition of a whore? A woman who is confident in her body, and takes agency over her body.... because honestly, these women would have been crucified by the media if their skirt happened to be 1 inch too short. It may look glamorous, but it was very restrictive and degrading to just be viewed as a glamorous doll.

      @@camerontaylor7471 The first thing that strikes me when I see actresses from this era is that most of them or maybe all of them behave highly unnatural, not only on screen, but also in interviews etc., what is not the case for many today's actresses. So it does not surprise me that at least half of them had severe problems with drugs, alcohol and psychological problems (Vivien Leigh, Elizabeth Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, just to name a few). For example, looking at how Marilyn Monroe behaves in interviews, I see that she never behaves normally, it is always playing a role - very tasteful indeed, but it is definitely not her natural self. It seems clear to me that if you are admired for playing a role all your life, you will hardly be able to know who you are in person and it will take a toll on your psychological condition.

      Vivien had such an English and Irish face at the time that was different from Hollywood. I think she was very beautiful but it was the EYES. She could cut a glance so sharp that it kinda makes your heart stop and pay attention to her. Her cheekbones were to die for. Her face was so soft but sharp. All she had to so was raise that eyebrow and BOOM- sold. She was still a bit child-like which makes people kind of look twice at pictures or film because of how much naivety she could posses but also, be a firecracker when need be.

      I don't think that VL and her husband Olivier, were the most moral people in the world. However, she had a ton of friends, friends that she kept in touch with and would do anything for, throughout her life. I have read in a biography that she had a very kind and generous side. Too bad for people like herself and Marilyn Monroe that lithium wasn't available at the time. It could have made a huge difference with their mood swings.
