Why does Hollywood not value beauty and excellence anymore...

Why does Hollywood not value beauty and excellence anymore? The standards have clearly deteriorated hard from the 20s-60s era.

Grace Kelly is a goddess

The standard has fallen and we have ourselves to blame.

...

The funny thing is the majority of these were great actresses too, not only preatty faces. It’s difficult to find someone with the two in this modern age.

...

>tfw literally don’t recognize any of those old bitches

am i a pleb?

A tremendous one, watch The Big Sleep, Rear Window and Spellbound for starters..

Rita Hayworth had a wonky eye though she's like Goose

Yes. The golden age of holl

Yeah but you have to remember they were all groomed and made by the big 5 studios trough hype and media manipulation. In the end its all smoke and mirrors

Marilyn Monroe looked standard as fuck, my man

been watching Lana Turner films as of late. very cute!

Don't care, smoke and mirrors or not, they looked far better and carried themselves the same way.

She wasn't much to look at and is vastly overrated, but she oozed sex.

Try watching her in motion faggot. None of the roasties today who try to be her can even hold a candle.

I guess you are right in the sense that actresses were expected to have more class back then and too always look their best at all times.

Old Hollywood was also the age of the casting couch and beauty standards being enforced by drugs, starvation, exhaustion, and rape. They went to extreme measures to get the most from these actresses, which is why we will never see such talent again. Women these days are coddled, and after Weinstein, they will only get more entitled.

The other day i learned that Rita Hayworth was actually hispanic. Lol it was a surprised for me.

not only a pleb, but probably also a gen z

how can you not recognize at least 3 of them jfc

Totally, am I right?

I recognize all but the two on the top right, I may recognize their names but I can't match their faces

Yeah it was pretty fucked up shit judy garland's story is really sad. Actors and actresses were basically slaves to the studios back then.

Real beauty is worth suffering for, or so they say.

Vivien Leigh and Carole Lombard

Who's the one second left on top?

>beauty standards enforced by drugs and starvation

so why did all they look thicker than the average starlet today?
aside from just a few like Hepburn

Ah, see I know Vivien Leigh. Even seen a few of her movies. Not sure how I didn't recognize her. Carole Lombard is new to me though

Rita Hayworth

Rita Hayworth

thanks lads

even cute as a brunete

>enforced by starvation
What a meme. Obesity levels have risen astronomically in the past 25ish years. Watch any old footage from the 1980s or before and you can noticeably see how thin everyone is by comparison.

>not wanting to be drugged, starved, exhausted, raped
>Women these days are coddled, and after Weinstein, they will only get more entitled.
What did he mean by this?

Yesterday I watched To Be or Not to Be, a war world II comedy with Carole Lombard, its very good and i recommend it highly. It was her last role before her death in a plane accident.

and eventually became a milf!

user its well known back in the golden age of hollywood they use to force actresses drugs to keep them all the same weight this was before they had any rights and studios owned them.

She is the best looking one in the picture but you've been brainwashed by the Jewish media to think that blonde women are "standard" and "boring" and that women with darker features are exotic and more attractive.

I'll make a note of it. I hate when careers or lives end early like that. There's like 3 on my list so far

Seen Notorious yesterday and have been on a Hitch binge, Ingrid was stunning in both that one and Spellbound. Already seen Rear Window and plan to watch Dial M for Murder and To Catch a Thief, where do I go next? I plan to watch Psycho and Vertigo.

Because they actually had waists to accentuate their hips and breasts. Woken are getting bigger (along with everyone else).

>In 1958, for example, a size 8 corresponded with a bust of 31 inches, a waist of 23.5 inches and a hip girth of 32.5 inches. In ASTM’s 2008 standards, a size 8 had increased by five to six inches in each of those three measurements, becoming the rough equivalent of a size 14 or 16 in 1958.

good looking characters make movies 100x more enjoyable, even males

they were still flirtatious whores who peddled a manicured image of success and beauty, user. you're lusting after refined nonsense instead of blatant bullshit

Hahaha no. I too believe that Marilyn is not that attractive but at the same time i believe Grace Kelly is the best one.

What you said may be true, but they were better at being whores than the ones today.

>Why do women not value beauty and excellence anymore?

Fixed. Modern women in general are shit, and Hollywood is just one of the many victims of it.

I think The Birds is a must when it comes to Hitchcock

>She is the best looking one in the picture
No, she's not.

>but you've been brainwashed by the Jewish media to think that blonde women are "standard" and "boring" and that women with darker features are exotic and more attractive.
Lolno

There are other blondes in OP. Grace Kelly fpr example had a truly exceptional face and body. And was a real blonde to boot. Monroe was a fake blonde.

Monroe just wasn't that good looking. Her strong points were stage presence and voice. Monroe is boring looking because her body is 6/10, about as good as any not fat girl, and her face was 7/10 with a ton of exaggerative makeup.

Eva nailed it in KoH

I've seen that one a long time ago, might rewatch it because I remember it being hilarious.

Is that from a vintage gay porn?

too many faggots making casting decisions? idk

obligatory Paulette "Goddess" Goddard post

Women's fashion was just better back then. Nowadays 90% of them dye their hair and cake themselves in makeup, and put on something revealing, because that's what they think is pretty, but they actually just look like cheap whores.

>be Hayworth, half Spanish half English
>omg why did she roleplay as non hispanic the times were so racist she was mexican like me

Marilyn Monroe was a complete retard who took more takes to film even the simplest of shots than it should have, and there probably isn't a single person who worked with her twice.

Vivian Leigh was a high-maintenance bitch to work with

Rita Hayworth was a slut who probably casting-couched through half the roles she got.

Grace Kelly fucked her way to a better life and quit ASAP once she had a bigger meal ticket

Elizabeth Taylor really wasn't that good of an actress, but somehow she's the first person in history male or female to get a million-dollar paycheck for a movie role. Feminists don't like you knowing that while arguing about "MUH EQUAL PAY"

tranny

gimme all there names in order

none of them compare to this

This is what Hollywood thinks it's real beauty these days.

>these were great actresses too, not only preatty faces.

Is it wrong I find the acting in old movies to be incredibly shitty and fake.

...

I hear you ive seen a few exceptions but most are hard to sit through.

Top left to bottom right: Elizabeth Taylor, Rita Hayworth, Vivien Leigh, Carole Lombard, Audrey Hepburn, Sofia Loren, Grace Kelly, and Marilyn Monroe

>Why does Hollywood not value beauty and excellence anymore?
marxist jews run hollywood now

back then it was only about 50% jewish plus many of those jews were non-SJW, non-propaganda pushers

now hollywood is entirely about the marxist agenda

>Elizabeth Taylor really wasn't that good of an actress
its like you haven't seen Who afraid of Virginia Woolf?

Marilyn wasn't a retard she was just borderline insane and on lots of drugs

I find older movie acting to be a bit more "theatrical". Sometimes it works and sometimes it is just jarring

you sir, are a patrician if I ever saw one

Hey vapid imbecile, black and white grainy photographs make people look better than they actually do. If you were too dumb to figure this out on your own you need to go back to pol with the rest of the absolutely worthless morons.

there's plenty of color images of iconic black and white beauties. doesn't really affect much

It was another time, all change with Brando and method acting. You can’t judge their acting with modern standards, that’s fucking retarded.

Even for that time it's fucking atrocious.

No man. Grace Kelly is great in Rear Window, Vivien Leigh is great in A Streetcar Name Desire. Audrey Hepburn is great in Roman Holiday.

They used large and medium format cameras for publicity stills back then. They're less common now because 35mm were cheaper to mass produce, and digital sensors are even smaller, packing less detail in pictures.

We haven't had a good BDH thread in a while. What happened?

She’s getting old

Lauren Baccall looks like a man and has a throat cancer voice, get better taste you pleb.

women don't like looking at attractive women

that's why actresses like emilia clarke are so popular. "she's just like me" as in she's a fucking average hambeast that everyone pretend she's hot.

You fail to make any point whatsoever and also are ill informed about that era of Hollywood. Stop calling everything a meme, you pea-brained nigger.

Get the big ones out of the way first, Psycho, Vertigo, North by Northwest, The Birds, etc. After I would recommend Rebecca and Suspicion because I really like Joan Fontaine. Strangers on a Train, Rope and Shadow of a Doubt (Hitch's own favorite) are also essential viewing.

so are you user

It's not, at all. You probably haven't seen any movie from that time either, you big buffoon.

super subjective and vague criteria there, pal

tastes evolve, society changes

Damn I usually don't like jewesses but she was pretty hot desu

So fucking hot. Also she coined the term Rat Pack by walking into Bogart, Sinatra, etc sweaty & dunk as fug playing cards and yelling “You look like a pack of rats.”

> youtube.com/watch?v=tcRBm58WvPI

She's ugly

Hollywood simply started to value talent and acting ability.

Films from the 1920's were just starting to move away from the silent era of entertainment. So there was no sound involved so filmmakers from the time probably figured to put a gorgeous face for people to look at.

>1 2 3 4
>5 6 7 8
2 and 7 are the finest up there, followed closely by 5.

Why do you think women are objects for your pleasure, Mr. Satan?

It's because her Romanian genes cancel out her Jewish genes. Romanian women are hot as fuck.

>Why does Hollywood not value beauty and excellence anymore?

It doesn't.
It is rotten now, it was rotten back there.
Maybe they only don't pump kid actors full of drugs anymore.

This is Ava Gardner and she was the most beautiful actress around in classic Hollywood era.

no u

She was objectively perfect, imagine seeing her in real life.

...

Me on the left

You don't recognise fucking Marilyn Monroe?
>These are the people that give their worthless opinions on this board all day

Be still my beating heart. What a woman.

It's called newer generations, oldfag.
