Men of Yore

First of all let me preface this post with a reminder that there is nothing wrong with the movie stars of today. I am very grateful to men like Ryan Reynolds, Brad Pitt, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles, Joseph Gordon Leavitt, the Hemsworth brothers, Chris Pine and may other leading men today for being so easy on the eyes and making movies with terrible plots and bad writing slightly more bearable.

That being said.... nothing will be able to top the leading men of the past.... I'm not sure why these men are so much more attractive. Maybe it's the fact that they were in black and white. Maybe it's because you could tell they were for the most part just normal people, not always at the gym working out and trying to look good, they just were good-looking, no two ways about it. Whatever the reason, I'll let the pictures do the talking. Enjoy....
