    I find Audrey Tautou overrated in ever way, but Diane Kruger... I do find her stunning!

awesome list and stunning photos (Zhang Ziyi :swoon: ). But I miss Irene Jacob and I never found Bacall attractive. Also what about Jennifer Connely, Barbara Stanwyck, Zooey Deschanel, Jean Seberg, Sherilyn Fenn, Janine Turner, Mary Elizabeth Winstead?

    Deschanel can hardly be called "...of the movies" specially now that she made the big jump to television, but she is beautiful....NO on Winstead, she has a lovely face but not enough to be called beautiful.

    I haven't seen any movie of Winstead, only photos. So you may be right there. Also Fenn and Turner have made very few movies I guess. Their main roles were in tv series. Anyway, my main gripe is missing Irene Jacob who is my favorite actress. I fanned this list initially, then decided not to unless she is added X(

    Also, I find Deschanel more cute than beautiful. A fine but definite line.

What about Emanuelle Beart...Lauren Bacall....Veronica Lake....Lana Turner?...I agree with your choices except for Kiera Knightley, Winona Rider and Denzel Washington they are not beautiful they're normal.

    Thanks for the suggestions! Good ones, and you're wrong. Keira, Winona, and Denzel are stunning.
