Re: What gives with this lady anyway?

She was quite stunning.  Particularly when she was pictured with a what appears to be a genuine smile.

Yep.  She was supposed be very beautiful. He carried a torch for all his life.  Sad.  She broke his heart.  I don't see the obsession.  She looks like an average women.  Nothing special...


@songbird If you think that looks alone are what make a man love you, then you’ve never really been in love.


@TenderMercies, when I was young and stupid, all I cared about was a guy's good looks. My mother use to tell me there are more important traits to have than being good looking (I was dumb and thought what does my mother know)! Well she was right, when you love someone they are attractive to you. My mother also use to say, sure he'll be good looking but will be abusive to you, is that what you want?

@sunshine45, are you by chance using Firefox?  I've found recently there are often photos that I can't see unless I right click on the box and chose view image.

Re: What gives with this lady anyway?

      I remember Frank's singing from hearing his voice on the radio with my mom.   I have alwaysy liked his music and have several CD's of  his songs.  I never thought he was a good looking man, just very average.  But his voice was so smooth! 

      Ava was a pretty woman, but I thought the size of her nose was out of proportion to her face.  I have read that she did live a sad but rough life.....

Frank always looked like the big eared mouse in one of the cartoons. It may have been mimiced after him .Nothing to look at for me, his personality was off for me. No lady killer !!

Re: What gives with this lady anyway?

I think the more in love one is with another, the more attractive the other person is. Think about someone you “loved” until you broke up with them… after that you may have wondered what you ever saw in them.

In that picture in post #61, Ava looks like Sela Ward.

Ava Gardner...femme fatale.  Includes the song Sinatra wrote and many film clips from her movies.

Re: What gives with this lady anyway?

Like my mother (and another poster) said: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think Ava Gardner was a beautiful woman ... sort of a strange comment for the OP to make, but we all have our opinions! My dad used to drink a few brewskis in a bar in Hoboken, NJ in the early 40s with him and a bunch of guys, and always said FS was just a skinny little guy with a big voice!
