Dunno about the first two,but Melanie,in Nobody's Fool,flashed Paul Newman,and there is nothing overrated about her boobs!

David Soul. Don't give up on em, baby. And I've seen him fight vampires in both Salem's Lot and Bay City--a John Saxon vampire on Starsky and Hutch. Groovy.

Stacy Keach. Sargent Stadanko out-funnies Cheech and Chong. And he can do great straight acting, like John Huston's Fat City. Well, I dunno how straight he was on that set. Drinkin EVERY scene. But he pops up allatime in old seventies flicks, always impressing me.

Constance Bennett. I'd like to Topper, if you catch my drift. Cutest little flapper chick nobody ever talks about. I just wanna put her in my pocket and take her home.

Patricia Clarkson, she is a wonderful character actor who I've always enjoyed.

Ernest Borgnine,I saw him in Marty the other day..he did such a good,believable job as lonely,sad,but good hearted man who finds someone like him..and many other movies he was in,From Here to Eternity,The Poseidon Adventure,heck even Escape From NY..

He won an Oscar for Marty!!
