A list of some very beautiful ladies there John...........

If our "Heathcliff" is to come from a similar era it would have to be someone like James Dean, Tony Curtis, or Elvis in his very early years....... for me, all very handsome...... or Rock Hudson who we now know wasn`t a "ladies" man at all, but he was incredibly good looking.....

for a modern day one it would be any of the ones I mentioned in my eye colour list or :
George Clooney,
Tom Cruise
Mark Wahlberg
Kevin Bacon.....all excellent actors in my opinion, who could all be "Heathcliff"

Looking at your list MO, its looks as though, you like all the men who screw their eyes up and sort of squint as though they can hardly see.........lol.....

I always thought Rutger Haugher looked very mean and moody in that Guine** advert.....

So Pam you`d have gone for Moony then, .........he was as mad as a box of frogs, but you`d never have had a dull moment i suspect..............

Oooh Pam - crushes from films ...

I think my first crush was Carol Lynley, who played "Nonnie" (the hysterical blonde one) in the Poseidon Adventure. I remember seeing it when it came out in 1972 (yes it was that long ago) and thinking oooooooooh, she's nice (well I was only nine!).

My next proper crush was on Joanne Samuel, who played Jessie (Max's wife) in Mad Max. I also remember her as nurse Jill Gordon in the Aussie soap "The Young Doctors" - but by that time the thoughts going through my head were much deeper than oooooooooh, she's nice! I haven't seen much of her since then though.

And of course, there's always Milla ...

Hello folks, yes I believe "Gregory's Girl "starred John Gordon Sinclair, and he has a major crush on Dee Hepburn I think it was (wasn't she in Crossroads?) and she was in the schools football team, the only girl. Now my brain has clicked in and I know now why I said about my first crush being Leonard Whiting. They say Zac Effron looks like leonard whiting, but he's not a patch on him...and Ed he had blue Eyes not brown for a change!

The film made in 1966 that you refere to John was I think, "Georgie Girl."

Don't think I've seen Georgie Girl, but yes, have seen Gregory's Girl and I agree it's very good!

Pam.

Hi,
Yes I looked it up. It was Georgy Girl made in 1966.
Starred, James Mason, Alan Bates, Lynn Redgrave and Charlotte Rampling.

you are right pam great film when i was growing up

Hi John, yes I think it probably is on the list he said to me but I forgot to put it up! I know he doesn't like the remake of The Italian job as he said it's just an advert for the new mini's. now I like both, but I drive the new mini and it's a Cooper S, so I'm bias...flash old bird aren't I!

He's a Jim Carrey fan and also Steve McQueen fan, but now you come to mention it he does come across as a Michael Caine fan. Al pacino films he likes too. So expect he said The Godfather ones too.

Hello Karl, I can remember a film called Gregory's Girl but the one i'm thinking off was in the eighties I think. The film in the sixties with a similiar title was Georgie Girl I think.


My first 'crush' was on Leonard Whiting in Franco Zefferellis Romeo and Juliet, I remember going to see it with some of my friends, we we're about twelve. Don't know what made me think of that! Such lovely memories. And such tight tights!!!! ☺

Hi Pam,

Your son seems to be a fan of Michael Caine. I'm surprised The Italian Job isn't in his list.

Hi,

Three contrasting films I've enjoyed over the years.

The Mask. Not a fan of Jim Carrey but thought he was good in this.

The Wicker Man. Edward Woodward played his part really well.

Half a Sixpence.Tommy Steele and was it Julia Foster? Whoever it was she was attractive!
