Propaganda
Irene Papas (Tribute to a Bad Man, Electra, Zorba the Greek)— "From the opening shot of Michael Cacoyannis's Electra, as the proud, implacable face emerges from encroaching shadows, it becomes impossible to imagine anyone else as Euripides's heroine. Erect, immutably dignified, dark eyes burning fiercely beneath heavy black brows, Irene Papas visibly embodies the sublimity of classical Greece, tragic yet serene." -Philip Kemp (film critic) Also she's a a badass.
Jeanne Crain (State Fair, Apartment for Peggy, Leave Her to Heaven)— shes,....pretty....ougj....
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.
[additional propaganda submitted under the cut]
Irene Papas:
An amazing actress and singer, some may say a literal Greek goddess. Fought against military dictatorship in her home country and had an affair with Marlon Brando.
She literally played Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world in Greek mythology, what more could you want
Jeanne Crain:
here's her in literal disney princess mode, singing her "i want" song from the (very bad don't watch it) "State Fair":
