Actresses I fell in love with

What a beauty, like in "Great Expectations"! I would never survive if somebody dug out a porno with her, I think.

What a SWEET girl, like in "The Apartment". In Irma La Douce she played a whore but you just could not believe it. No, she was always dressed when she got the money. Oh, what the heck, it was Paris, two people in love and that was it! No whoring and I was in love, period.

So fragile. I would come and rescue her on my shining white horse, dressed in full armor. Yeah, sure, if she was still alive, you moron.

In love again, in spite of her naughtiness. I focus on her fragility automatically. She died. What a pity.

In love, in love! I am in love with that girl from "The Man In the White Suit". In love with that clever and sweet girl. In love.

She was in "The Magnificent Ambersons" and I was the one she ought to have loved and not that nincompoop.

I always squirmed a little when she got sexy but didn't exactly look away when she got nekkid. After all, she was my woman.

She should only take her clothes off for me and so I almost look away when it happens on film. Such a good girl, that she probably took her clothes off so that I should feel that I gotten something from her or something like that. I don't know. It's complicated.

She was Nurse Betty, goodness personified. And I was in love.

As in "Room With a View" not as in "Harry Potter", you moron.

As in 1900 and We, Who Loved Each Other So Much. Not exactly as in The Key. That was more like shock treatment for my delicate mind. Jau.

As in "The 39 Steps" and I am Robert Donat and don't you forget it!

She was Cathy and I was Heathcliff and it was 1967 and I was 14 years old, so the whole thing was a little complicated but what is a boy going to do?

I was 8 years old and looking at the posters in town for the film West Side Story that I would only see years later and after I had seen Rebel Without a Cause. Anyway, I fell in love with the girl on the poster, who was squatting on the ground somewhere, her dress spread out around her and her hands in front of her somehow. That's all I can remember.

It was on my bike she was riding and it was I who was the graduate and the gunslinger and whatever else she might want me to be.

For a short while there somewhere I was in love with her but then she got so, what shall I say, "phony liberal" or "liberally phony"? And rich? And? Why didn't you go COMMUNIST - that I would have liked! Or maybe you did and I missed it! Oh, my love where are you?

Well, this is different. This is more like "in lust" than "in love". This is more like smashing the hose on the desk and let it find its target. And then you wake up and have to change the sheets.

And this is something in between lust and love. I have difficulty in deciding what.

In lust but with love. How I loved these freckles!

I was Colonel Blimp and she was she.

Ditto.

Oh, yeah! I sure liked to have her somewhere. I would even fight Fantomas for it - almost.

As in Deer Hunter and I'm the returning de Niro.

As in Long Good Friday and I'm Bob Hoskins...or maybe not.

Das gibt's nur einmal.

As in The Quiet Man and I even be John Wayne to make it happen.

Oomph! Red-haired delight. Lust or love - who cares?

Ditto.

Guess who's Dr. Zhivago!

The homely girl so sweet as in The Enchanted Cottage. I don't mind, if the soul is as fine as that.

As in Saturday Night and Sunday Morning but also later, even as late as Hear My Song. The woman with that extra something.

As in Grand Hotel, not later. And to think there was a porno of her, confiscated by the FBI! Boy, could we learn from that!

I would not kick her out of bed unless it was cold and she was making the bed even colder.

When she gets sexy, she does not repel because of her initiative. Instead, she makes attraction possible, because when she is not open for sex, she is just unattainably too beautiful.

Well, somebody asked why she was not on the list and I have no good answer to that; especially not, since she reminds me of a woman I knew, who was very warm and generous.

“ What a lovely lady indeed! Totally buried in television though. How come she did not get any decent roles in films????? I don't even know if she was in more than one film. When you see her, you recognize her and you will ask the same questions. I have her only in one episode of "The Mind of J.G. Reeder", which is available. Well, it is as it always was - the best of us are never known, not the best musicians, not the best authors, not the best anything. Some decent people achieve semi-stardom as, for instance, James Coburn or Robert Donat. Some, very few, reach beyond that like Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert but not Francois Adrien Boildieu (don't even know if I spelled correctly). Come to think of it, I believe that this discrepancy has enhanced with time and maybe it has never been worse than now, was it not for the internet, where I, for instance, could hear Jack Omer even if I cannot buy any CD of him, since they are not available. In Sweden we had Raymond & Maria, who just disappeared.

Yes, there is talent in the bushes, which is not allowed to be known. How could it be otherwise, when scoundrels rule the world? If scoundrels knew anything of beauty, then they would not be scoundrels, would they? ” - karlericsson

“ Didn't make my first list and I don't know why but I know when I fell deeply in love with her. That was on that Runaway Train, where she was anything but glamorous-looking but displayed such a lovely soul that I just could not help but falling in love. A woman of CHARACTER! ” - karlericsson

Forgot her too! My, my! A woman of such CHARACTER and a reason to see the film that she is in. How could I?

OK, when she walked away from the camera in her birthday-suit in Single White Female, it was not my heart that melted or anything else for that matter, in fact, more like the opposite. But she's lovely as you can see and you just like to hold her and see what happens

Actress with that little extra that makes all the difference. I don't think it's in the looks, though. But she awakes both love and lust

Fine features! Chose wrong roles for herself or did not get the right ones, therefore much more forgotten than she should be. Quite unique, actually. Maybe the only actress that got even more beautiful with age. Looked best in her forties and she was probably the most beautiful 40 year old woman I have ever seen.

Woman of intelligence, except for the voice

Beautiful with humor. A rare combination beyond a certain age. Unfortunately she never got to be so old.

A woman of real character. Played a bitch as good as the opposite. A real actress with that little extra as well.

Funny and attractive. A very rare combination

Ditto.

Who is not really beautiful and not my "type", if I have a "type", but who has so much SOUL that it is overwhelming. Oh, I want to hug her.

Gets better the older she gets. Good sport, so it seems.

Not as you see her on the picture here. No, much older as in Jackie Brown. Speaking of getting old with grace!!!

Never better than in The Lace-maker. So fine and vulnerable - too fine for this world. Love, just love and much of it.

In Cabin In the Cotton she's so delicious that you just like to grab her and eat her up...or something.

Shame on me because I snatched her from another list. Why, oh why did I forget her? So very WOW and more love than lust, actually.

How can you ever forget her? Often in good movies, which proves taste, because her movies are often odd movies. Can be naked or not naked - always good. CHARACTER, I suppose.

Timeless German beauty. The woman you remember to have seen but could never get the name of. Now you get it - check her up. CHARACTER, SEX APPEAL, EVERYTHING.

So sweet in The Apprenticeship of Duddy Krawitz.

So oomph in Heimat! Love or lust - impossible to tell!

Tarzan's mate and who could blame him? Love and lust and the whole jungle. Jau.

Why on earth did I forget her?? I'm shocked! Maybe because I loved her too much. I can see no other reason. Should be on top of all my lists!

Now, how could I forget her, whom I was so very in love with once? Maybe, because she in later years came to resemble too much the role that she played in La Ceremonie.

Forgot her too and had to snatch her from another list. How could I? So endearing in the Chaplin-films and those early Bob-Hope-films.

So many sweet films, so many sweet melodies. I don't know why I forgot her. A mystery indeed. Or maybe not. As good as all of her films are unreleased on dvd!!!! How come??? Are we not supposed to have these feelings?

So sweet in Kalifornia. A reminder to us all that we cannot have this society of winners and losers.

This is a nice human being, I think. Would not mind to spend some time with her and not just in bed.

How could I forget her? So nice, so very, very nice

As in "Who'll Stop the Rain" in which Nick Nolte exclaims:"Nothing but class" and we agree.

Again, we are drifting into another realm, I'm afraid, especially when you consider that film La Belle Noiseuse! There ought to be a law against creating such a body, so unfair towards all other women. Too much for any man alone. Did I say lust? Heart Attack, more likely.

Boy did I have to dig to find her! Unforgettable but not in name. A name you just too easily forget. I really like this one and conclude my list with her. She's last but definitely not least!

Lust and lust and more lust.

As in Maria's Lovers, in which she was very sweet indeed.

Nice with nockers! A chest-piece to loose yourself in. But also nice and not just lust.

She is an eyeful, but still I had to snatch her from another list. Maybe too little character - I don't know but on this list she stays.

Oomph. Lust, I'm afraid. Or maybe not just that.

Maybe too much of an actress, so that you don't think of her in these other terms.

Maybe too conscious of her own beauty, which, sadly, changes with age.

Well, certainly a good actress and there's nothing wrong with her looks. Still, she comes very late on this list, for some reason.
