Tuesday, December 02, 2008 Lots of beautiful people exist in this world.But I feel that the beauty modern women possess can never hold a candle to these women who hail from the 50s to 80s. ![]() Audrey Hepburn is an easy and overused choice.But really,I feel that her features are so well defined that they all form a beautiful picture on her face. I was flipping through her biography and it was mentioned that when she slowly aged,she started to get very paranoid about the wrinkles forming around her eyes and forehead that she became depressed. ![]() Grace Kelly was a celebrated beauty during her times.Many people love her for her elegance.She led a rather short life though.Her reign as a princess ended when her car flipped and plunged into the sea. ![]() Edie Sedgewick was once Andy Warhol's muse.I didnt know much about her until I watched Factory Girl.She seemed to be the life of any party and was quite a looker.Too bad she had a drug overdose and passed on at the age of 28. There's a pattern here. Many pretty actresses passed on at a rather young age.And very often,due to tragic reasons. But then,their beauty becomes timeless and is widely celebrated by many people even till this day.Who can forget Breakfast At Tiffany's? Who can ever mimic the unique style that Edie Sedgewick possessed? Fast forward to the modern times. Many pretty faces adorn magazines covers,tv screens,movie theaters. But I feel that only 3 possess the same quality as the aforementioned icons. ![]() She is touted to be the modern day Grace Kelly.I very much agree to the statement.She is one of the main reasons why I like Great Expectations.Ironman was nice because of her.Don't know why,but I cant' seem to revert my eyes away from her whenever she appears on screen.Perhaps that's what the term magnetic presence meant. ![]() Look at those cheekbones!She is really an acting thespian.She brings life to every character she plays.I can never never forget her in Lord Of the Rings.Though a small role,but I felt that no one could have played the role better than her. ![]() Asian beauty. I feel that no one can beat Maggie Cheung. She had me at In the mood for love.She has this quiet elegance and strength within her. I'm not one who follows trend.But this time,I bucked the trend of not following the trend. I'm officially sucked deep into the world of Edward and Bella. I'm sure some of the fans who read the saga way before the hype would look at me with detest.You know,readers who want to pick up this particular book to read because everyone said it's nice. HAHA. I'm one of them.Guilty as charged! So when I parked myself in front of the Twilight booth,many sec sch girls walked past and stopped when they came across the booth. 'Twilight leh! I want to buy and read!' 'Ohhhhhhhhh,it's the vampire story!' 'Nice leh!' Those pretty much summed up the comments I heard when I was flipping through the movie guide. Amusing. |
