Propaganda
Harriet Andersson (Summer With Monica, Sawdust and Tinsel, Smiles of a Summer Night, The Deadly Affair)—Sweden has a reputation for hot (and loose) young women, and Harriet Andersson is one of the reasons. Her performance in Ingmar Bergman's Summer With Monica wowed audiences around the world, and for those in the audience who didn't care much about plot or acting, the US also had a cut-down-to-the-juicy-bits version. Harriet kept acting in films by Bergman and others, showing she had considerable skill along with her beauty, and made her way into occasional international features like The Deadly Affair. Really, Andersson is a perfect actress if you're looking for someone who has highbrow cred and multiple awards, while also being an absolute stunner.
Candy Darling (Flesh)—no propaganda submitted
This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

When she ate that stolen meat with her hands in Summer with Monika... now THAT'S Scandinavian eroticism

Candy Darling on her deathbed (1974) photog: Peter Hujar
Darling died of lymphoma on March 21, 1974, aged 29, at the Columbus Hospital division of the Cabrini Health Care Center. In a letter written on her deathbed and intended for Warhol and his followers, Darling wrote, "Unfortunately before my death I had no desire left for life ... I am just so bored by everything. You might say bored to death. Did you know I couldn't last. I always knew it. I wish I could meet you all again." Her funeral, held at the Frank E. Campbell Funeral Chapel, was attended by huge crowds. Julie Newmar read the eulogy. Darling's birth name was never spoken by the minister or any of the eulogizers. Faith Dane played a piano piece, and Gloria Swanson saluted Darling's coffin.
