Like all such lists, and as you will see I am guilty of this myself, the author slips a couple in (oo er) from obscurity to look more credible. Jennifer Connoly is nice in a girl next door kind of way but top 50? Nope. As many of the comments say, Raquel is clearly missing, put it down to age or my lack of sophistication but she was always It for me. As are most of the Eurobabes apart from Loren and Cardinale, where is La Lollo, Capucine, Melina Mercouri, Ursula Andress, Elke Sommer, Joan Collins (who has been around a really long time…) and Britt Ekland? America is under represented by at least Jane Fonda, Sharon Tate, Ann-Margaret and Angela Lansbury (yes…younger days obviously)

http://www.cinemasirens.com/galleries.htmlI am firmly stuck in the past and 5000 miles to the right. Most of my dream girls are now dream grannies or celebrity compost, the former dolly birds from UK TV and Film, Gayle Hunnicut, Diana Dors (even in her later years), Stephanie Beacham, Kate O’Mara, Margaret Nolan, Carol Hawkins, Wanda Ventham, Wei Wei Wong I can have a great time watching Loose Women even these days. Yeah I left out the better known Hammer, Carry On and Bond stars in that same lame attempt to improve my credibility, but you can take them as included too. What can I tell you, even as a teenager I always had a thing for older women. I am not sure I can even name someone I would go to a movie just to see now…um, oh Milla Jovovich, apparently I will watch anything with her in it and have suffered accordingly, Ultraviolet <shudder>.
Still, when you think about it, since just about every single Hollywood actress has been hired primarily for their looks and a lot of stars and movies have passed into the sunset now, it’s going to be hard to get it down to 50. Can you even get to a reverse 50 of un-attractive “Character” actresses who even beer goggles wouldn’t help? Miriam Margolies maybe? Nice voice though, used to dub for the sultry vixen rubbing a cigar on her thigh in Uk adverts of the 70’s…anyone else? I think I’d still do most of the famously supposedly un-attractive; Phyllis Diller, Joan Rivers (circa 80’s) but it would take a lot of real ale for Kathy Bates.
Googling “Unattractive actresses” will just show you the ones with some quirks, you still would…
