Actors that are/were Perfect Gentleman

Your list includes numerous actor who were not only perfect gentlemen but perfect

HOMOSEXUALS

What about Pierce Brosnan? His first wife who died from cancer he adopted her children and he seems to love his second wife and it must be awkward because she gets mocked for her weight gain. He seems like one of the good ones.

R1 Only Dirk Bogarde was gay?

R2 He is a good one! So is Timothy Dalton!

R3- I decided several years ago that NONE of the actors who portrayed James Bond going back to 1962 have ever been heterosexual.

R4 why?

Fred Astaire fucked teen boys, I have heard. But so many did, back then.

SIR JOHN GIELGUD

Didn't Fred have an affair with Hermes Pan as well?

Al Corely.

Raymond Burr

Robert Young

Clark Gable

Too heavy on the Brits.

Harry Belafonte Sidney Poitier Tony Bennett Burt Lancaster Christopher Plummer William Holden Patrick Stewart And Jodie Foster

R5-No one told me. I just figured it out on my own.

Ricardo Montalban.

Louis Jourdan.

Sidney Poitier.

Cesar Romero.

Gregory Peck.

R11 William Holden was a falling down drunk

Danny Glover

Charles Boyer Marcello Mastrioni Eddie Cantor

Dick Van Dyke

Harrison Ford

Christopher Reeve

Patrick Swayze

[quote] I have been thinking about the evolution of acting and personalities.

Why?

Do you have some kind of agenda or hypothesis?

What is your definition of "Perfect Gentleman"?

Are you aware you're talking about movie actors whose profession is lying and pretending to be others?

Do you think your analysis will be useful or give new insights or win you a PulitzerPrize?

Gary Cooper

Roddy McDowell

Ricardo Montalban

OP, your list looks as though you attempted an alphabetical list.

But you have failed.

This reminds me of an old gossip story when Sean Connery was filming "The Rock." Some of the cast and crew were on a boat headed to Alcatraz for filming. Connery made a pass at one of the male crew on the boat. The crew guy turned him down and Connery had some kind of hissy fit and sulked like a jerk for the rest of the boat trip.

Told to me by someone on the boat.

Onscreen or off?

Kirk Douglas

Fatty Arbuckle

Errol Flynn

Clint Eastwood

Eddie Fisher

Gig Young

Zachary Scott.

(only flaw: prone to periods of depressive alcoholism, but always immaculately turned out nevertheless).

Yes, perfect gentleman must be immaculately turned out.

We can't have perfect gentlemen being nude.

Ossie Davis

Geoffrey Holder

Jerry Orbach

Tony Goldwyn

Peter Gallagher

Roger Rees

Nipsey Russell

Not an actor exactly, but Alex Trebek

Abe Vigoda

Peter Cushing

Christopher Lee.

I don't think Burt Lancaster was a nice guy. Ralph Fiennes is an arrogant jerk.

I can think of only Gregory Peck on being a really nice person.

[quote] Ralph Fiennes is an arrogant jerk.

He was a dribbling airline toilet whore.

I once wished a certain rude crooner on R11's list a "Merry Christmas" as he passed my table at Nobu 20 years ago; he never did respond in kind and I never spent another dime on his music.

Snubs have consequences.

Miles Heizer Connor Jessup Edvin Ryding Omar Rudberg

Kevin Spacey. Not once has he ever sexually harassed a woman.

R35 That man must be a BITCH.

He certainly wasn't a Perfect Gentleman.

The third last on the list should have returned in 1960s.

There's nothing worse than an old man who wears out his welcome.

Donald Pleasence

Sir Les Patterson

[quote] Miles Heizer, Connor Jessup, Edvin Ryding, Omar Rudberg

They are barely even actors, let alone gentlemen.

Gentlemen don't exist anymore.

They died out in the middle of the last century.

Ronald Colman, Basil Rathbone

R35, see? A gentleman says nothing when he really wants to spit at you. I stand by my list.

There are no gentlemen in our century.

Caesar Romero is NO perfect gentleman !!! he did not pay for the "procedure" I had to undergo in Cuba in 1959!!

Clint Eastwood treated women like trash. Didn’t he make Sonda Locke call him Daddy?

"Perfect Gentlemen"...? More like good performers, on and off the screen.

fags

Harry Langdon

Rod LaRocque

Gyles Isham and Gerald du Maurier

Robert Redford

Brando killed off the perfect gentlemen sixty years ago.

Dead and buried

Off the top of my head, I would just choose Pierce Brosnan, Dan Rather, and Brendan Fraser. Maybe James Garner, but I don’t know enough about his personal life, really.

Does being a gentleman mostly include being kind and not being personally messy?

Young men no longer aspired to be a 'gentleman’ by the year 1960.

It became a label for lavatory doors.

Paul Newman. He made some mistakes, had some regrets, and also did some very great things.

Vincent Price

James Garner

OP, Ralph Fiennes is a horndog, and got in trouble for fucking a stewardess on an airline flight in the bathroom.

Some "perfect gentleman."

Freddie Highmore

Ralph = perfect whore.

Roddy McDowell Christopher Reeves total fags.

Stanford University says this thread needs to be banned.

It is both 'sexist' and 'ablest'.

Reeve, not Reeves.

Edward Redmayne, OBE.

Roger Moore wasn't nice to his first wife, the singer Dorothy Squires. He took advantage of her fame and cheated on her, his whole career came about because of her influence. He was a knitwear model when they met, financing his shot at Hollywood ruined her.

James Corden
