Celebrities At Their Most Attractive Time

He was pleasant looking in Top Gun OP.

But it's totally impossible to look at Cruise in any timeline and find him attractive now because we know just how incredibly batshit crazy and repulsive he is.

In that photo he looks more like 32.

I can't decide if Cary Grant was hotter in his 20s, 30s, 40s, or 50s.

Marilyn in her 20's.

I thought Cruise was hottest in Far and Away

Grace Kelly in To Catch A Thief.

Batman era Chris O'Donnell

Brad Pitt - A River Runs Through It

Rock Hudson - Magnificent Obsession

^ Provide photos. We don't know what you're referring to.

Yes, I'm sure most dataloungers have no clue who Brad Pitt and Rock Hudson are

When I worked with her, Julianne Moore's was 2:34-4:46 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Brad Pitt in Legends Of The Fall.

R12, seriously?

Doris Day in Do Not Disturb.

Connie Francis on the cover of her "Hawaii Connie" album. If the woman wasn't so short she'd make one hell of a supermodel, with a photogenic face like that.

R15 Gorgeous photo from same movie.

Brad Pitt in "Seven"

Robert Taylor in Camille - he was prettier than Garbo!

R19 From the same movie. Gorgeous.

Taylor's face was pretty but oh so forgettable; I think it's because of his jawline - it was just so nondescript.

Brad Pitt has been fine for so many years, his most attractive moment is simply a matter of your personal taste!

[quote]Yes, I'm sure most dataloungers have no clue who Brad Pitt and Rock Hudson are

I’ve seen Brad Pitt before cuz my mom was in love with him growing up but I have no idea who Rod Hudson is.

Cindy Crawford in the Pepsi commercial.

Beyoncé as Deena Jones in Dreamgirls

Both Angelina Jolie and Beyoncé desperately wanted Gal Gadot’s newly announced role of Cleopatra.

Angelina was deemed “too old”.

Beyoncé was deemed “not attractive”..... (enough?)

[quote]I'm not attracted to Tom Cruise, ever, but damn he was hot in Top Gun. He was 23.

You ONLY found him "hot" in that ONE movie, but you're "not attracted" to him in any other movie he made around that time? That makes zero sense.

Keanu Reeves in Speed

Diana Ross when she was with The Supremes - her hair, makeup, and face were just right.

Mme Dion in 2019

Matt Bomer in White Collar

[quote] Angelina was deemed “too old”.

In high school she would’ve been too old.

Impossible to choose the "most beautiful" for Paul Newman. Here's a good one.

Matthew McConaughey - "A Time to Kill"

Sharon Stone - "Basic Instinct"

Keanu Reeves - "Speed"

Cher - "Witches of Eastwick"

Mel Gibson, The Road Warrior

I can’t get over Cruise’s three front teeth in OP’s picture.

Cesar Romero had a character actors face and was definitely a more handsome man when he was mature, but I think he looked smashing in his 20s, such as in Devil is a Woman. He wasn't a handsome young man but he was so sexy with that Iberian angularity. Usually only see it in North Africa, Iberia, and Latin America. Can sometimes sneak into Ireland or France.

also the set of the mouth, carnal

Many pretty boys look best when they are, in fact, young, 20s-30s, but sometimes they hit a sweet spot again right before they go completely to seed. Paul Rudd, Ben Affleck, Jude Law, Jonny Lee Miller, Hugh Grant (and it was a shock, blink and you missed it). Colin Farrell is a challenging one because he's actually young at 44 and shouldn't go completely to seed until his 50s but he's been dancing back and forth for a few years. You think he's gone to seed and a fatty and then the next year, nope, and then it's gone, and then it's back.

Paul Newman and Cary Grant looked great forever.

Mel Gibson - Year of Living Dangerously

Richard Gere was another one. Hot young stud, then meh meh meh meh and then around 60, RIGHT before old man, he was a sexy silver zaddy. He's now 71.

Whitney in the video for “I Will Always Love You”.

Robert Conrad in "The Wild, Wild West." He knew he was in amazing physical shape, so he made sure his pants were as tight as possible and that several episodes featured him shirtless. I always had wondered why the villains would routinely have him stripped to the waist when he was tied down for one reason or another. I read a story about his training regimen and he claimed he never lifted weights. He would run daily, do hundreds of sit-ups and hit the punching bag.

RON Hudson? Really? What’s happening to the world?

I thought Belinda Carlisle was so much prettier with her blonde hair before she started dying it red.

Leonardo DiCaprio in Marvin's Room. He was at the height of his beauty in this film, and he had his natural dark blonde/light brown hair color which looks best on him imo.

In Romeo + Juliet he looked like a child (which is funny because it was made a few months after MR), and in Titanic his skin was already starting to look sun damaged.

Pete Burns around the time of Mad, Bad, and Dangerous to Know. He looked like Isabel Adjani for a few years.

Henry Cavill in Man of Steel

Vince Vaughn in "Swingers", literally the only film where he looked hot. It was all downhill from there.

Jason Patric, around the time of Denial (1990).

Rita Hayworth in Gilda

Gross, R48!

Clark Gable in 1930s. He never recovered from Carole Lombards death. This ones from Red Dust 1932. Hawt.

This bish...2010s

Elizabeth Taylor in Elephant Walk.

Ben in The Town. Hot AF.

I like Elisabeth when she came back in the 80s.

Matthew Modine and Nicolas Cage both peaked when they were VERY young.

R25 - Beyoncé looked like a cartoon in Dreamgirls....a terrible cartoon. She’s never been attractive.

Tim Hutton and Robert Sean Leonard lost their looks after being cute twinks. Nicholas Hoult seems to be keeping his. I wouldn't throw current Lee Pace out of my bed, but his sweet spot was much younger.

Dermot Mulroney right about here.

Aiden Quinn was a beautiful young man than kind of disappeared. Then, just before becoming a old man, he showed up being sexy on Elementary.

Titus Welliver was NOT a handsome young man, but now he's sexy on Bosch. He doesn't even have a body! Just the voice and the late 50s face does it for me.

Famke Janssen late 80s. But I lover her skinny lifted otherworldliness as the creature on Hemlock Grove.

Patrick Wilson- Little Children

Pitt in Fight Club is EVERYTHING.

*SLURP*

Jared Leto in that Gucci ad.

Russell Crowe, A Beautiful Mind (2001)

Leo in The Beach

How can we forget Jude Law in The Talented Mr. Ripley?

Ryan Phillippe in 54.

James McAvoy in Atonement.

Ewan McGregor in The Pillow Book. To me he's the kind of actor who's always relied more on charisma than real handsomeness, but he was beautiful in this.

I seem to remember a brief, gratuitous scene in ARGO, of all movies, where Ben Affleck is getting out of a shower, and he looks amazing in it. The fact that Affleck also directed the film makes the inclusion of the scene somewhat amusing, but it sure is hot.

Chris Sarandon was so hot in Fright Night. The nightclub scene in particular.

Mark Ruffalo has always reminded me a bit of him in this, maybe that’s why I have a thing for Ruffalo as well.

Everyone notice and his wig and beard were excellent as well!

Robert Redford. The Way We Were.

He didn't age well but for a few years in the WWW....

R27

Hello, dear, I don’t watch Tammy Cruise movies, however, I was watching Berlin‘s “take my breath away” video which includes clips of the movie. Take a seat.

[quote]I don’t watch Tammy Cruise movies, however, I was watching Berlin‘s “take my breath away” video which includes clips of the movie.

Umm, if you "don't watch" his movies, and your comment about TOP GUN was based only on clips that are included in a music video, all the more reason why it's so weird for you to say that you were never "attracted" to him in any other movie. P.S. Referring to him as "Tammy" is a tired joke and no longer funny (if it ever was).

On another note: R80, thank you for that Ben Affleck image :-)

Anthony Perkins, Green Mansions

John Gielgud in his 20s and 30s was a fairly attractive man.

Tom was gorgeous in War of the Worlds. He was 43.

Leo was gorgeous in Blood Diamond. He was 33, I think.

Gregory Peck is probably my #1 most handsome movie star ever, and I liked the way he looked in On The Beach. It came out in 1959. He would’ve been 42 or 43 here, and I think that’s when many men look their best.

Bonus cutie Anthony Perkins and his knee socks.

Marlon Brando at his peak!

Rock Hudson, at his most radiantly beautiful.

Barbra in Funny Girl. This outfit in particular.

Runner, Runner -- a film no one has seen

BOTH of these dreamboats.

Jason Bateman now. Never noticed him before but there’s something about his terse, serious roles I like.

River Phoenix as young Indy!

The Blouse Man.

Gilbert Gottfried when he played Iago the parrot

Montgomery Clift in From Here to Eternity. It's the most masculine he's ever looked. Even Burt Lancaster couldn't keep his hands off him.

Al Pacino in The Godfather

His prettiness didn’t last long, but he had it here

He didn't age all that well, but young Gary Cooper was stunning. Also, according to rumor, bisexual and hung like a horse.

Ben Affleck = ickkkkk

Hugh Jackman in Australia

Paul Newman was a fine looking man for a long time, but for me, he hit his peak in Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

Keanu in Point Break

Johnny Depp 21 Jump Street

He’s lost all his looks now, not surprising with all the drugs/drinking he does

R30 That's just mean. Poor old anorexic thing.

Johnny kept his looks for a long time, longer than he deserved. The first time I really noticed his aging was in Public Enemies, when he was in his mid-40s.

Tom Cruise has been hot throughout his career..at some points ridiculously hot. He’s still attractive now although in 2020 he’s had moments where he looks pudgy and bloated and at his worst, resembles Pete Buttigieg. Anyway, I thought he looked beautiful around the MI2 era with the slightly longer hair.

R108, Pete isn't pudgy or bloated. And he isn't a walking testament to plastic surgery like Tommy Gurl

R77, I think Ewan looks better with shorter hair

Matt Bomer looked the hottest in the short-lived show Traveler

Late-80s, "No Way Out"-era Kevin Costner.

I thought Tammy looked particularly good in Vanilla Sky; at this point he'd really grown into his face, losing the last of the baby fat that made his face look oddly-shaped. He was about 38 years old, and was aging really well, sort of like pre-Babs James Brolin.

JTT ❤️

Sean Young in Blade Runner.

Whoaaaa!!! He got really creepy though when he got older.

[quote]Ben Affleck = ickkkkk

Post a pic of yourself.

R112 Kevin was really hot in Fandango too.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

He drank his looks away hard, but godDAMN Errol Flynn was gorgeous right aroung 1940!

Another one who hit the wall hard: here's Tyrone Power at his dishiest in 1939 as Jesse James.

R119 You're fine as hell. Here's me.

M in 1985, the year she did Plenty/Out of Africa.

I never realized how much Ryan Reynolds looks like Errol Flynn.

I liked Justin with the frosted curlycue do. Britney was cute then, too!

From dorky to briefly hot to ick -- Anthony Michael Hall.

Here he is in Season 1 of The Dead Zone.

Logan Marshall-Green in The Invitation. There is something so sexy about him.

Julian Sands in "A Room with a View" - also Rupert Graves in the same film.

Justin Theroux in Romy & Michele.

Mariah at 21

Before he cut up his face

R113 more than in MI2? Here he is in the bathtub alarm scene.

Caspar during the Starship Troopers movie

JD during the trial ❤️

No one that short is hot.

Ralph Fiennes @ 33, before the male pattern baldness set in:

James / EJ at his peak

R131, he actually looks attractive there

Michael Jackson was an attractive young man even with the acne. His self-loathing manifested itself in his determination to carve his face up like a Halloween pumpkin.

I'd still hire this bitch

Someone call me?

Billy Campbell during Once and Again days.

But he's been my dream man since Dynasty and I'd still marry him even though he's like 60 now.

Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in Love

Jamie Dornan in Marie Antoinette

Mid-60’s Peter O’Toole in What’s New Pussycat.

When exactly was Richard Gere “meh?” He looked great in Pretty Woman and very silver fox in Primal Fear, both well before 60.

Alan Rickman in Sense and Sensibility. HOT

Illya Kuryakin /David McCallum

Gyllen in Prince of Persia

Judd Nelson. The Breakfast Club.

O'brien in American Assassin

Pacino in Serpico

Gary Dourdan during his CSI years

Sorry

Jean Marc-Barr in The Big Blue

Daniel day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans. The long hair was a good look for him

Duchovny in the red speedo.

Sorry.

Zac Efron in "Charlie St. Cloud"

River Phoenix in "Running on Empty"

George Clooney and JLo in Out of Sight from 1998

Chris Evans in Fantastic Four and Cellular. I think he was at his physical peak in 2005.

Dr. James Kojian in this commercial.

Clive Owen in Closer

Eric Bana in Black Hawk Down. His body looked the best in Troy and his ass was great (in jeans) in Munich, but I think he looks better with short hair like here.

I loved Ashton Kutcher in “Dude Where’s My Car.” oh those lips 😋

Whenever this photo of David Hasselhoff was taken.

Ashton looked his best in “Killers”.

R168 - he is very yummy there.....never saw that film

Aaron Carter BEFORE all the meth and bad decisions.

Brangelina were at peak hotness in "Mr & Mrs Smith", especially in the car-chase-shootout-in-their-underwear scene:

My favorite “Lost Boy” Corey Haim ❤️

Brendan Fraser in School Ties

Jeff Goldblum Earth Girls Are Easy

Dionne Warwick from the 1960's as opposed to the mess that she has become now.

Brent Corrigan with bad teeth at 17 and 18 lying about his age.

Mickey Rourke in 9 1/2 weeks. Such a shame what he did to his face.

Hunky Rod Taylor from The Birds when he was in his early '30.

Oh my. Look how young Bradley is.

I wonder if he's had plastic surgery on his nose.

Sam Elliott circa Lifeguard

Clint Eastwood in his early 30s.

Brooke Shields - Blue Lagoon

R182 the fact that that Sam pin up is from Teen Beat is cracking me up for some reason. I suppose b/c he looks so old compared to today’s youthful looking teen pinups. Seems like he’d be more for the mothers. But w/e, he’s hot af. I especially liked him in Roadhouse, when he’s a little grey haired.

I do like the tank top he’s wearing. I want one.

THAT was Justin Theroux in Romey and Michelle's High School Reunion!!! MInd blown

I wish Diana had made more movies around this time.

Early to mid-90s Keanu Reeves (Point Break, My Own Private Idaho, Speed)

Zac Efron at 24, in 2012 (doing interviews for The Lorax).

Johnathan Scaech in Poison Ivy 2

He looks better with dark hair. Same with Efron.

Milo (before “This is Us”)

James Earl Jones during the early 60s

Richard Gere in American Gigolo

Tim Daly in Wings

Kirstie Alley in Runaway

Jude Law in “Talented Mr. Ripley”....his last movie before his hairline left us.

Rhonda Fleming back in the day. She just died at age 97.

Love this thread. So many of the pics are from the 1990s. This says something about the age of the posters and/or that was the last decade in recent memory when so many celebrities were especially good looking. Before that, it was the 1950s.

Couldn't find a good pic, but Lorenzo Lamas as a blond in "Grease".

Matt Dillon in an obscure 1995 movie “Frankie Starlight”

r96 .....A Walk on the Moon...I would have run away with him leaving my boring Jewish husband way behind

Sorry, r173, but I actually think Brendan Fraser looked the most attractive in his George of the Jungle days.

(Guess the GIF won't preview -- you'll have to click on it).

Too bad his looks hit the wall so hard.

James Spader in 1985, in the TV film Starcrossed. (I remember seeing it as a kid and being wowed by the beauty of the actors -- Belinda Bauer looked very good in that film too.)

Too bad Spader's another one who hit the wall HARD when he lost his hair and got fat. But at least he had a good run.

Jeff Bridges in Jagged Edge. An absolute beauty.

Matt Dillon peaked as Sam Lombardo in Wild Things

Young celebrities are in their most attractive time NOW, so that explains why so many pictures are stars from the 1990s. Stars like Brad Pitt and Jude Law are still around enough to be famous, but we all know they are past their peak of freshness. In 20 years, gays will be talking about when Chalamet peaked in CMBYN or Dune or something.

DL fave Faye Dunaway in Chinatown.

Jane Seymour and Christopher Reeve in "Somewhere in Time"

Greg Vaughan on Charmed. I also think DL fave Rose looked her best as a redhead.

Eddie Cibrian's butt in this episode of "Sabrina the Teenage Witch".

Keanu Reeves' butt in the early '90s.

Tom Selleck in 3 Men and a Baby

Hot af as Magnum, of course, but I like him in this. I love big, hairy men in tank tops and tiny shorts.

Charlie Hunnam in Pacific Rim. I couldn’t get into him in Sons of Anarchy, he was such an ass.

Joaquin Phoenix in the very late 90’s and early 00’s. He was fucking beautiful and it’s just gone now. His role in 8MM was peak sexiness.

David back in the Angel days.

I think this also says that men truly age better than women--looks-wise.

Nicholas Brendon before completely imploding.^^

Christopher from Blue Lagoon.....love that diaper full of “goodies” 😋

And now for something completely different...

Charles Chaplin, age 25

Rock before AIDS

Chaplin was never hot. And he was short, too

Eddie Cibrian comes from a long tradition of delicious lite-acting TV hunks, aged 25-40.

Chaplin was cute, r219, and he was truly a genius at moviemaking for a time. Did you know that he composed music too, and wrote the score for City Lights himself?

Too bad he was a pedophile. (Yes, yes, I know DL's resident NAMBLA trolls will come out and say that he was an "Ephebephile", but I won't split hairs here -- he was plain gross that way.)

R221 - we cannot blame Chaplin for his attraction to younger partners. It wasn’t well known back then that pedophilia was wrong. People just did what felt natural, with no ill intentions.

R222, he only married one of his wives to beat statutory rape charges. So, no, not everyone thought it was great for grown men to sleep with underage girls.

Chaplin was an ephebophile, not a pedophile. He liked teenage girls. An important distinction, I think.

Maxwell Caulfield back in the day. A real babe.

Max again.

Thanks for appearing right on schedule, dear NAMBLA member at r224.

R227 - I get what you’re saying, but I think it’s much more acceptable to be attracted to a 17 year old than a 4 year old child.

Nice ad hominem attack, R227, but my point still stands: Fucking teenagers is icky and actionable but not the horror that molesting five-year-olds is.

There IS a difference between an ephebophile and a pedophile, hence why there are two distinct terms for the conditions. But virtue-signalers like R227 like to act like there is no difference. It makes the insults more dramatic and makes them feel even more woke. In reality, it just makes them sound like hysterical Karens.

230 replies and not one mention of Barbra in "What's Up, Doc?" is just shameful.

I like Tom with a young Barry Gibb vibe.

She did look great in that movie. And she got to bang Ryan O'Neill at his hottest. Must have been a fun shoot!

Barbra was always better in comedy roles in dramatic ones. If she'd stuck with comedy in the late 70s and early 80s instead of doing all those heavy films, she'd have had more hits.

[quote]Too bad he was a pedophile. (Yes, yes, I know DL's resident NAMBLA trolls will come out and say that he was an "Ephebephile", but I won't split hairs here -- he was plain gross that way.)

Why are the people replying to R227 choosing to ignore what he actually wrote at R221?

Billy Zane...

R230, calling people "Karens" is silly when you use Republican terminology like "virtual signaling"

Only Republicans herrs and fraus say stuff like that

Christopher Walken. Don't know the year of this pic., but oh my.

Walken was a pretty boy. He played a gigolo in a Merchant Ivory movie.

God, that picture of Zane, above. When he hit the wall, wow, turned into a different man.

Stallone was never my cup of tea. But I thought he had an appealing physicality in the first Rocky, in those shabby little rooms it was shot in, and his shabby hangdog face, it all worked. It was a good performance, too.

My choice Stallone would be from Cobra, 1986

Guy Madison in “Since You Went Away, “ in the 1940s.

Tom Cruise peaked in Jerry Maguire IMO. The perfect blend of youth and maturity.

R242 I think that was his very first movie.

R244 Yes. He played a sailor.

As far as Keanu Reeves, I'm a big fan of his look in 1991, namely Point Break and My Own Private Idaho.

Michael Schoeffling in Sixteen Candles

With Brad Pitt, it's tough, because I think he looked other worldly in Thelma & Louise. In Fight Club he hit that youth/maturity point quite beautifully. But, then, in Troy, he ... I don't know what he did, but damn. He was 39/40 when he filmed this.

Paul Newman: The Long Hot Summer

Jan Michael Vincent back in the day.

Jon-Eric Hexum at any point in his tragically short life.

Thank you R251. I didn't even know he existed. I didn't know that story.

He got a degree in biomedical engineering, played football, and piano. He was very a-matter-of-fact about doing menial work to pay the bills. Gorgeous man. He was going to do Playgirl (with his clothes on).

I could see him doing roles in Hunt for Red October, Far From Heaven, and/or on E.R. (as George Cloonoey's role).

Here he is with a buzz cut.

Also, he was an Olympic-style diver. Was there anything he couldn't do?

He also seemed to have a real business-mind towards the industry. He dropped the name Jerry Falwell with some degree of remove, so he may have been politically sound as well at the time.

Just tragic. And his name contained the word "hex."

The camera loved him.

Very glad to see so much positive response to my mention of Jon-Eric Hexum. He really was of the Gods. Such a tragic loss, and in a totally senseless way.

Young Keanu

Danny Pintauro - pre-AIDS

Rick Rossovich was much hotter in "Top Gun" than Tom Cruise was.

STING, sometime in the 1980s.

He was starting to bald, but so what!

bump

I have two for Charlie Hunnam. 1. when he was a young after his Queen As Folk days (he was 1000x hotter than the twink from the US version). He had long hair and was on Everwood or some WB show as the hot British extra. Pulling off long blond hair is no easy feat.

Kevin Costner in No Way Out.

Probably the moment I knew I was gay.

2nd is when he stared in Green Street Hooligans. Everyone I show this movie to fall in love with him and his macho boy with a heart character. He has a short scene in just a towel that is just so damn sexy.

Charlie Hunnam was also gorgeous in NICHOLAS NICKLEBY. I remember he had a brief shirtless scene in that. Of course, it was ridiculous in the sense that no one in those days would have had a body like that, but I REALLY did not mind the lack of verisimilitude :-)

I always appreciate that the Jon Eric Hexum troll always makes an appearance on these threads. Probably the only person keeping his memory alive.

Jeff Bridges in Against All Odds

[quote]I always appreciate that the Jon Eric Hexum troll always makes an appearance on these threads. Probably the only person keeping his memory alive.

I expect his memory will be kept alive for years by his many fans, whereas I imagine all memory of you will be gone the moment after you expire. Of course, I'm not 100 percent sure about that last part, so maybe you should drop dead and let us all find out :-)

Dolph Lundgren - at his most attractive at all times!

Dolph Lundgren butt some time ago...

Dolph Lundgren butt now...

Joey Lawrence in his “woahhhh” days. He possessed a young, dumb, full of cum attitude that I loved.

Farley Granger in Strangers On A Train (1951). He was age 26 and beautiful.

Tom Neal in "Detour." He had the most beautiful wounded-looking eyes and kissable lips in this one.

In real life, the guy was a violent, alcoholic mess and ended up doing time for murdering his wife, but in this movie, he was sexy as hell.

Rodney Harvey, "Per Lui."

Robert DeNiro in the '70's.

Guy Madison in "'Till the End of Time." He was at the height of this beauty in this film. I couldn't take my eyes off him.

Jesus Christ, that's the best pic of DeNiro you could find?

R78 No kidding!

With the disclaimer that I will forever despise him and that his soul is hideous no matter what; cockrock bassist Nikki Sixx had a small window of physical attractiveness in his early-mid thirties, ca. 1988-1993. I don't know why that was; maybe he just got sober and started working out or eating better, or maybe it was just Italian-mutt genes kicking in and helping him out, or maybe it was one of the clauses in his deal with TPTB.

He got the face and the body he deserved in the end, and that's what I hold on to. His reputation is also more or less tarnished. Shame he's still worth about a zillion dollars with a hotwife and tons of fans left, but hey, I guess life isn't fair.

r5, Minority report

R5/R281 are both wrong.

Tammy was most beautiful -- and most fabulously gay -- as Lestat de Lioncourt in INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE.

Years before the tattoos and meth, I was so in love ❤️

For the DeNiro fan.

You must know about his sex scene in the film "1900".

Is Dépardieu circumcised in R284?

R285, no, Dépardieu is uncut. He tugs his foreskin in that scene and pulls it back. De Niro is cut.

R202, Nope. For me, Against All Odds. I need to fan myself off.

I found Brad Pitt at his hottest when he turned 40, around the time he made Oceans 11. I wasn't really a fan of his looks when he was younger but found him more attractive as he matured.

I found Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz at their most beautiful in The Mummy.

Good taste R258 - hottest actor - and moment - in the entire film right there. Just the bit where he does the rawr in the volleyball scene. ooooooo jesus

I thought Streisand looked great in What's Up Doc?

Brad Pitt has aged worse than Ben Affleck.

Beautiful people at their most beautiful is a wonderful thing. I think most of us go through a period, be it long or short, when we are considered attractive by a decent number of fellow humans - but the actually stunning among us, at their most stunning? Sometimes i wonder what it would be like to be that attractive.

Liv Tyler in Stealing Beauty has the same luminous glow of youth, health and vitality that Tom Cruise does in that early shot from Top Gun posted upthread. It's like the beauty is projecting itself out of their pores. Aging is fascinating. Some people peak in their teens and are genuinely past it by 25. Others naturally age into a kind of mature beauty in their 30s or for the very very rare few, their 40s (that is extremely rare though, even in men). I find the people who age the best are round faced, chubby boys. the ones who look soft and dumpy in their teens. They often age like fine wine and can be found looking sexy af in their mid 30s. The early signs of aging actually compliment and masculinize that type. Lucky bastards (although I guess it sucks to be them as a teen).

Third photo down at the link. Brando at his finest!

Brad Pitt has been hitting his peak periodically over the last 30 years, just different peaks on different mountains. This year, he reached the peak of DILF mountain.

My opinion on Pitt is that Fight Club was his peak. As someone else mentioned about another actor, it was the moment of perfect balance between youth and maturity. Also best body he ever had. Keanu's body in the first Matrix film is, imo, the most perfect male body ever.

Does the prose of Reply 282 seem like Erna's back from her sabbatical? Or never really left?

Beauty trumps everything.

Kind of agree with R294, but I actually find Brando hotter in his first starring role, in The Men.

Since we're mentioning TC at his peak attractiveness, my vote is for "Rain Man" (1989).

This movie is a drama with a tear-jerker ending but, when I watch it, I can think only about traveling cross-country with him and all the things we would do...

Brad Pitt in Fury gets my vote. He's just so...rugged. Unlike y'all, pretty boys and twinks do nothing for me.

Another vote for the very young John Wayne.

[quote]Brad Pitt has aged worse than Ben Affleck.

This doesn't completely negate what you're saying, but I hope you realize Brad is about 11 years older than Ben.

R203, ABSOLUTELY. I recently purchased THE BIG TRAIL on Blu-Ray, and no joke, the young John Wayne is SO gorgeous in it that, every time the time he appears on screen, it almost takes my breath away. Watching that movie, it's easy to understand why he became a star in certain kinds of roles even though his acting ability was questionable, to say the least.

I thought Brendan Fraser hit peak hotness in "Gods and Monsters."

R292 ummm have you seen Ben Affleck lately. The man looks like a 55 year old cancer patient. And he's only 48. Brad Pitt has aged great compared to that guy. Hell, most people have aged great compared to Ben Affleck. His only saving grace is that he's skinny. But he's sliding down that hill FAST.

Alain Delon in what? Plein Soleil? Il Gattopardo?

I don't know many people who would say that Steve Buscemi was EVER cute. But he was adorable in "Parting Glances," one of my favorite 80s gay films

Sorry r292, but this is Brad at the age Ben Affleck is now. I get this are opinions, but calling this bad aging is ludicrous.

The young Dowager Countess was quite dishy.

Young Steven Bauer was perfection.

After it was pointed out to me, I've never been able to NOT notice the midline discrepancy of Tom Cruise's teeth with the bridge of his nose.

Chynna Phillips - "Live for you" music video, theme to Demi Moore's film "Strip Tease."

Brooke Shields in her “Endless Love” days.

She was 16 or 17 or something - and her presented as a sexualized figure when so young is always an uncomfortable issue in re: her early years. But she did seem to peak in her late teens.

She’s pretty gorgeous.

^^ good goddess, my editing was terrible!

Cam Diaz in The Mask

Loretta Young in her teens.

Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional.

This is probably from the late 90s or early 00s. Man, he did NOT age well.

Jon Ossoff, whenever this was taken.

R23, I agree.

Best looking dude, EVER. And I'm someone who prefers brunettes, so that's saying something.

I think he's gorgeous, NOW.

Call me, Brad. I'm your "type" .

LOL!

Oops!

My response was meant for R22.

Apologies.

Matt Bomer in the White Collar pilot. DROOL.

Marlon never better

Just found this topic at Reddit - lots of pics of stars when young and just regular good-looking vintage guys. Worth a look.

Perry King in The Wild Party (1975).

r326, Perry looks lie a Leyendecker illustration come to life...
