I think it's ironic that they played a song about "different dreams" as they showed a series of women with the same expression and the same facial features. We have such a limited standard of beauty.
honestly, some of those beauties wouldn't get attention without their hair & make-up experts.
Years ago, I walked into a little health food store in NoHo and saw a group of people having lunch. The woman facing me was so breathtakingly beautiful, I couldn't stop staring at her (and for a straight woman, I have to say this does not happen often, if ever again!).
It wasn't until she started talking that I realized it was Suzanne Pleshette. No lighting, no special make up and hair, just simply the most beautiful human I'd ever seen.
I didn't MAKE this video, I'm just posting it. Those of you who are criticizing it for who they selected and who they didn't are cordially invited to make your own version. I'll be glad to post it and you can read other people criticizing you.
This is mesmerizing to watch. And it probably has less to do with morphing software than with the "Divine Proportion" or the "Golden Ratio." (Google it.) I'd guess that the mask fits each of these women. And BTW, it doesn't say these are THE 50 most beautiful--just 50 OF THE most beautiful.
Nice selection of some of the most beautiful actresses - I'd also include Greer Garson, Lena Horne, Sharon Tate, Jacqueline Bisset, Susan Sarandon...
Hilarious how arch-rival sisters Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine are both still alive at 96 and 95 respectively: "If you think I'm going first, you're even crazier than I thought."
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. There have been some girls I thought were instant erection makers and friends basically looked and said "ehhhhhh, not so hot to me" and vice-versa with ones they thought were hot and I thought they should be chewing on Milk-Bones. Same goes with actresses.

Not only beautiful, but also some of my favorite actors.

ReplyDeleteGood choices, and talents. But no Judy Garland?
ReplyDelete3.42 So Mimi Rogers is a cross between Jennifer Connelly and Penelope Cruz. Who knew?
ReplyDeleteA lovely line-up until we got to Angelina Jolie, which given her last name, is ironic.
ReplyDeleteWow! It was fun trying to guess who came next. Although - and I know you don't like her - I think Andie MacDowell should have been on there.
ReplyDeleteWith respect, this is an amazingly unamazing video.
ReplyDeleteAll it demonstrates is that morphing software can make women who don't look alike SEEM to look alike.
And at then end, the dude puts his own face in there - as if he's as beautiful as these 50 women.
No Cameron Diaz.

olucy - How is "Voight" ironic? :-)
ReplyDeleteWhy is Angelina Jolie on this list?
ReplyDeleteAnd that one woman at the very end? She was about as attractive as Corporal Klinger running around in dresses.

ReplyDeleteStep back Ken.
DeleteFor your own sake.
These lists are always very subjective. Some of my favorites are Myrna Loy, Jean Arthur Mary Tyler Moore, just to name a few.

ReplyDeleteFascinting video, but some of these shots don't bring out the beauty of these women as much as their best films did.
ReplyDeleteAnd who's Bridget Bardot? Any relation to Brigitte Bardot?

ReplyDeleteThanks for this, Ken. Are there any you would have deleted or added?
ReplyDeleteGreat medly, Ken. They all seem to have the same eyes. Real beauty starts with beautiful eyes.

ReplyDeleteDon't take the criticism personally, Ken. Criticizing, griping, complaining and snarking replaced baseball as our national pastime a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteDiana Rigg. Maureen O'Hara. Loretta Young. Annette Funicello.
ReplyDeleteI have two quibbles with it: it didn't include my wife, and it did include Julia Roberts.

Hey they all have the same mouth!
ReplyDeleteWhere is Elizabeth Montgomery?
ReplyDeleteLet's face it, they could have gone on for hours with beautiful women. And I wish they would.
I'm a little disappointed they could only manage one woman of color, but lovely women.
