I've wanted to do this for ages, but put it off because I knew that my taste in Women would put off lots of readers. It probably will; people judge others based on whom they admire; why shouldn't I be subjected to the same process? I don't anxiously watch the viewership statistics anymore (any more?), and the books are being acquired based more on the prices than anything else, so here we go, in no order.
Brooke Shields. I thought she looked beautiful as a kid, and a teenager, but a bit robotic. But when she grew into adulthood, she blossomed, she had a Lovely sense of humor; she seemed as admirable a woman as it was possible to be in show business.
Goldie Hawn. I've always loved Goldie! I think, in addition, she really understood the humor in the scripts she had to work with; well, let's face it, it's not as if the scripts were very intellectual, or anything! A beautiful woman.
Ingrid Bergman. She's lovely, and so is her daughter Isabella Rossellini, and they both have a delicious sense of humor!
Olivia Hussey. I used to dream of her, ever since we got a Romeo and Juliet DVD. I was a little kid, but I had a huge crush on her, and I thought her Voice was to die for. (If you notice, her facial features, and those of the figure skater Yulia Lipnitskaya, resemble each other!)
Julie Andrews and Audrey Hepburn. For me, what's magical about these two are their voices, especially for Julie Andrews. Her singing voice, for most people. In my opinion, she never acts; she's always doing Julie!
Anne Bancroft. I hated her in The Graduate. But she's totally an actress; she made us hate her. (She's lovely in every way.)
Kate Winslet. I have only seen her in two movies: Sense and Sensibility, and Finding Neverland. In both, she was an awesome—wait, there's three movies I've seen her in: Eternal Sunshine of the Perfect Mind!—she's a wonderful actress; I haven't seen The Miracle Worker; if I do, that may pop her into the Brilliant category. (No, haven't seen Titanic, either.)
Kate McKinnon. OMG, she is just funny as hell! I used to watch SNL* like a prayer, but at the time she was a regular, I was somehow missing the show, and having to watch Kate's skits on YouTube. Amazing!
Fortune Feimster. Did I get the name right? She was funniest, I think, on the Chelsea Handler show. Brilliant! (Her comedy material is a little limited; maybe she should hire some writers. They're not cheap 😞) I love her dimples! I put the two dimples next to each other, that was clever.
My goodness; that's enough for one post, I think! I think I might have more; gotta fink about it.

Well, I made a list of women I'd like to talk about, and there were 27 more of them. It's going to be a 3-post project. At least, I'll have fun talking about them ...
