Propaganda
Joan Greenwood (The Importance of Being Earnest, Tom Jones, The Water Babies)— It's her voice above all that is the sexiest thing about her. Yes she was lovely to look at, but the voice .... rich, plummy, but with a crackle in it which dripped sex. Quite possibly she was one of my sexual awakenings without even realising. In the course of my research, I found out she dubbed Anita Pallenberg in Barbarella too. Which I've not seen, but now must rush off to do so.
Anita Ekberg (War and Peace, La Dolce Vita)— I'm going to be frank with you. Every time I look at this woman, I lose my ability to form sentences.
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]
Joan Greenwood:
Look, I'm not going to try to argue that she's prettier than Ava Gardner, but her voice! She's so cool, so haughty, so funny! Best known for British movies [editor’s note: what kind of propaganda is this?! Defend your maiden! "not as pretty as—" NONSENSE. fight for your beauteous hot lady.]
Anita Ekberg:
“I haven't seen much starring her (YET) but the scene of her in the Fontana di Trevi in La Dolce Vita is some of the most jealous I've ever been of Marcello Mastroianni maybe and that's saying a lot. Cinema history. Historical.”

If I had a nickel for every actor who appeared in Ealing Studio comedies and Carry On films as well as the Granada Holmes and Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series I would have a pile of nickels.

"Father Brown" (1954) - Robert Hamer
Films I've watched in 2022 (210/210)
I went into this knowing nothing of it orher than it starring Alec Guinness and was based on the stories by Chesterton, but I was very pleasantly surprised to find it also starring Peter Finch, Joan Greenwood and Sid James.
Full film (albeit in rather low resolution) on archive.org.
