Janet Leigh was so hot in this movie


I was always accustomed to her in Psycho, where she looks good, but damn. She's incredibly here! Looks like a completely different person. What a gal. Shame her daughter never looked like this!

Yeah JL was really, really smoking hot in this movie. I am a huge fan of hers and will therefore DVR and watch at least the first few minutes of anything she was in. This movie was not only featured a great-looking JL but also held my interest well enough that I watched it start to finish. I was also impressed to find that she was only 20-21 when this was made. A pretty fine performance for such a young actress.

I also agree that Jamie Lee, while attractive in her own way, never measured up to her mother.

And for me, while JL was very beautiful in Psycho (loooooooved the early seedy hotel room scene with her lover), The Manchurian Candidate is the JL performance that send my pants the craziest.

In Mexico senor, these are the years of sadness.

Young, cute, fit, and innocent looking... yes, she made quite the eye-candy in this film. That said, the word "hot" comes to mind when I think about her in Psycho.


Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!
