Gene Tierney and Veronica Lake had the most flawless, most disarmingly beautiful faces in Hollywood - absolutely peerless. Ava Gardner said that both Gene and Veronica Lake seduced the camera like no other starlets; facially they were similar: high arching cheekbones, thick hair, incredible eyes....ahh, what a journey!
@csmith0303 YESSSSSS omgosssh im a women too and when i saw the FILM LAURA i like fell in LOVE! lmaooooooo i dont care she, is SOOO ALLURING AND GORGEOUS AND JUST AAAAAAAH!....
Wow! Just discovered this actress and she totally blew ava gardner and rita hayworth out from my number 1 spot of old hollywood actresses. Now my mission is to watch all her movies! Woow she has gorgeous eyes!
@Cleon29Warrior Hey, your grammar is just fine. Try to see all that she did. She truly was amazing !! We have a Film Noir Festival here where I live and I can't afford to see all of them, but try to see a couple at least...... :)" The last one I saw as with John Saxon, when he was very young...... it was wonderful.
@Cleon29Warrior Heaven Can Wait, The Ghost & Mrs. Muir......... even some that were not considered great.. she is so beautiful that and there is just something very neat about B& W. :)
@jackierave Definitely true. B&W is something special. Only on black&white screen you can see how much is good an actor or actress. Although G.T. is gorgeus no matter is it with or without colour.
i dont want to sound like a dick or anything but i feel like the last picture should have ben taken out i think she should be remembered in her prim anny one agree
What a lovely lady! Not a bad actress, either. Her autobiography is interesting but sad. She married Oleg Cassini & had a retarded daugher (& one healthy one). Fell in love with JFK in the late 1940s, she had a nervous breakdown. But her movies live on.
@lizzyvance Heaven Can Wait (1942) Laura (1944) Leave Her To Heaven(1945) an Oscar nomination Best Actress, The Razors Edge(1946) Dragonwyk (1947) The Ghost and Mrs Muir (1947). That Wonderful Urge (1948), Whirlpool (1949), The Mating Season an ensemble comedy(1951) The Left Hand of God (1955)
@jezus92191 Yep, I think it was Garbo that said, "you cant reveal all of yourself, that you cheapen yourself if you do."...something along those lines.
I love Gene Tierney! I learned about her in the 70s when her autobiography was published. What a wonderful lady who eventually triumphed over some truly bad breaks. She was beautiful and so much more talented than she was given credit for. "Laura" is still my favorite movie, to this day... Thanks for the pictures!
plus priscilla is now unrecognizable...she's like a botox monster...tierney was beautiful...didnt needed any retouch...her personality & beauty stayed intact to people's eyes until her death...r.i.p..ms tierney, nobody like you ;)
Alas that is no longer a possibility,Gene has returned from whence Gene came, but we are so lucky to have the legacy Gene left of extraordinary work,life,beauty and love
Such a stunning Irish beauty! So underrated- a truly gorgeous woman, and a great actress. I loved her in "Laura" and "The Ghost and Mrs. Muir"- great acting! Yet she never had the acclaim that other actresses of her era got. Lana, Lauren, Ava- they had the studios backing them. I think Gene got jipped. Patrick
O my God- you're right! That scene when she's in the rowboat and watches the boy drown- that look on her face! It gives you chills! She's acting like a true sociopath- she really was great in that picture!
Actually her career started 1938 on Broadway when she was 17 yrs old. 1940 film career starts at 20 yrs old. She did not go into hospital until 1956. She had bouts of depression which we now know she was bi-polar episodes.
I am in the autum of my years, but was stopped in NY two times and was told I looked like her....I had to do research and
I had no idea who she was....she is turly amazingly beautiful....It was a compliment to me...(the lady with the depression ? that was "Scarlett" thank you the video/music.
@janaysayqua U got me their because I was struggling with Ava Gardner as my No. 1 when I wrote my posting..Gorgeous woman. But I will stay with Liz as No. 1..and No. 2 Ava..and my No 3 would be Linda Darnell..in that order. Liz.. I can't help those sensual eyes..Ava..dam and outright sexy woman..another one would be Jane Russell..hunk of woman..

@kives1985 Good picks..I really have to say..especially Kathleen Turner in her prime..wow, she was nice. Also, Raquel Welch..Man! U got me!! Really Good picks..but I still say Liz..I love Eyes..and that woman has the eyes..Hands Down for me Liz Taylor!! If she looked at me with those eyes, I wouldn't know what to do with myself. Hey! what about Gina Lollobrigida in her prime?
@thelastvampire1982 Beautiful yes. But the most beautiful woman ever hovered over this planet was Ms Talluulah Brockman Bankhead, the one and only. A archangel without wings - a Goddess !.
Yeah! That's the the 78rpm I remember played after WW-2 my mom & uncle played when grown-ups had Saturday partys in Croatia. Les Brown Orch & Doris Day are the ones,& could be no mistake. Ya Gods; what times were there for a good ol' squesseing dancing !! Gone are the days of wine & roses.
Very nice video and never saw Gene in the later days> why did such a beautiful woman have a man's name? Oh! Well, who cares. Glad she didn't wear braces, the overbite added to her looks. And the music. I love this one. This is one my Dad used to play on the piano and I would always sing along with him. Love it! Thanks!
Never mind the pictures...it's the background music...gotta be Les Brown and Doris Day back in 1944.fabulous..... memory evoking...army days...overseas...the whole bit...in colour...
