What actors, past and present, do you find handsome or beautiful?

William Hurt. I know he isn’t stop in your tracks gorgeous, but I always loved his roles and how he played them (quiet, gentle)

Wasn’t he also on maybe General Hospital?? If that’s correct I remember crushing a bit on him then.

I’m terrible with actors and celebs coming to mind about these things - a few of your posts prompted a few thoughts.

I often am attracted to “not” your typical heartthrob type person.

Agree on Rob Lowe
Young scruffy George Cooney
Micheal J Fox
Young Matthew Broderick
Adam Scott

George Clooney

Jane Seymour, Daniela Bianchi and Barbara Eden were probably first crushes. Something about the Bond women.

Hedy Lamarr and Anita Eckberg from the golden era.

As for males, I would consider Robert Redford the gold standard. The story of how he was turned down for The Graduate is funny.
