Brigitte Bardot (Contempt, And God Created Woman)—unbelievable charisma off the charts, post-war France could barely handle her because she just radiates sexuality in the deepest, hottest way. i've never seen a woman who fit so clearly in my head the "beautiful woman" category. also i'm including her little suit number because why not [pic below]
Vanessa Redgrave (Camelot)—Partially submitted as justice for her father, and you should all know her birth was announced to a theatre audience by Laurence Olivier. But for herself, she is a wild untameable beauty who was in some of the best avant garde cinema of the period.
This is round 2 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Brigitte Bardot:
"Los Angeles Times in 2011 ranked her as the second most beautiful woman in film, she won a David di Donatello award and was nominated for a BAFTA. Literally nicknamed a sex kitten, she used her fame to promote animal rights. And God Created Woman was so scandalous to US audiences that some theater managers were arrested for screening it"
"She was a sex symbol and her style is influential even today"
"She's just so iconic! Wikipedia extracts because why not : "In 2011, Los Angeles Times Magazine's list of "50 Most Beautiful Women in Film" ranked her number two" "The Guardian named Bardot "one of the most iconic faces, models, and actors of the 1950s and 1960s" "According to the liner notes of his first (self-titled) album, musician Bob Dylan dedicated the first song he ever wrote to Bardot. " I mean of course she is iconic in France, but she inspired many women outside of France"
"She wasn't just a sex symbol because men found her attractive and then that imagine of her was further promoted. But she was actually one of (if not) the first women to stand for emancipated women in a sexual way in a time when women were considered to mainly exist to please their man. She was famous for portraying women who lived their sexuality for their own pleasure and knew what they wanted. Very important! And also what's hotter than a woman driving men wild because they don't even know how to handle a woman with her own ideas and needs lol"

The Palestinian (1977), dir. Roy Battersby
watch
The documentary Vanessa Redgrave participated in and funded- and as a result the Zionist Jewish Defense League put a bounty on her head and she was blacklisted by Hollywood Zionists after her Oscar speech. Later, the theater where the film was due to screen in LA was bombed by a member of the JDL (June 15, 1978).
VR: Why do the fascists, why do the zionists, why do the imperialists want to defeat the Palestinian revolution?
When Palestine was occupied, the people were not strong, but later they carried arms. Their revolution began.
It influenced the world.
The Zionists told American imperialism that defeat means imperialism loses its place in Palestine.
Other people have joined the revolution.
Imperialism, the Zionists, and the Rightists here try to crush the Palestinian revolution and its allies
But the Lebanese National Movement is united with it
In that struggle together, a man is human, not an animal.
It spreads everywhere, people support it
In Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Oman
The bourgeoisie are afraid. It paves the way.
They want to destroy the Palestinian revolution

Martine Beswick (A Bullet for the General, Prehistoric Women, Thunderball)—She plays Adelita in the 1966 Italian zapata western “A Bullet for the General” (aka “Quién Sabe?”) a gunslinging revolutionary and she’s so wonderfully playful and scary and hot in the role. She also looks incredible in the absolutely absurd “Prehistoric Women.” Jamaican-born, Portuguese-Jamaican and British, she worked to help support her family from a young age.
Vanessa Redgrave (Camelot)—Partially submitted as justice for her father, and you should all know her birth was announced to a theatre audience by Laurence Olivier. But for herself, she is a wild untameable beauty who was in some of the best avant garde cinema of the period.
