Is this the best Faye Dunaway ever looked on screen?


Thomas Crown or Eyes of Laura Mars. A close call...

She looked good no matter what she was in . . .

I love Eyes of Kaura Mars BUT she'd was far more beautiful in Thomas. Crowne Affair

I preferred her in Bonnie & Clyde. I also liked her in Three Days of the Condor.

I'm gonna have to say... yes.

I haven't seen everything she's been in (I've seen enough of her 60s-90s films), but still, her face never looked more beautiful to me than it did in this film.


Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

Bonnie and Clyde was the best she ever looked.

She looked beautiful in Bonnie and Cyde…so chic for the film even in plain clothes….but definitely she looked the best with the fabuous wardrobe …29 costumes I believe from the great costume designer Theodora Van Runkle. Dunway’s costumes are on display in various museums dedicated to archived move costuming…film in fashion exhibits etc etc….The hair and makeup were spohisticated and defiently portraying jet-set life and set the tone for the hip and chic 60’s. Van Runkle also worked with Dunaway in Bonnie and Clyde. Fayes character is mentioned so many times in books, blogs etc dedicated to film costume designs and/or just a favorite for fashionistas.

Wait…..what about Mommie Deariest!!! LAMO just kidding 

When she was young, she definitely looked best in Thomas Crown. However, I think she looked her best in Chinatown. Absolutely gorgeous!!

Faye was at her youngest in "Bonnie and Clyde" and "TTCA" and therefore at her sexiest. There was a scientific study done that I once read which came to the conclusion that the prime age of a woman's (girl's) sexual appeal for the purpose of procreating the species is 17.
