I can't make up my mind. Who was the most beautiful, ravishing, compelling teenage actress of all times (say, to narrow it down, from the sixties on), Olivia Hussey, Isabelle Adjani or Nasstaja Kinski ? And who has aged (not just in looks, holistically so to speak) the best ? Here, Adjani is out of the competition: she's decided she'd be an eternal ingenue. At 53 or so, it does not suit her. Kinski and Hussey have fared much better. Any opinions ? Of course, Olivia having played Juliet has a very real advantage. What better role for a teenage actress ! Thanks so much for the gorgeous pictures.
 
I loved her in Romeo & Juliet and I remember her in Lost Horizon^_^

We had to watch F.Z's Romeo and Juliet as part of study and she's so beautiful!

so beautiful. eternally Juliet to me.
dare I say she looks like a combination of Alexis Bledel and Kristin Kreuk... :ninja:
 
It is so rare to have a perfect face. But is a perfect face the ideal of a certain era or does it endure ? If you look at pictures of Olivia Hussey, there is no doubt that she would be considered to have a perfect face at any time, in any place, not just the sixties, although I think, since she looked so great with her long straight brown hair parted in the middle, she was the quintessential face of the sixties, for a teenager. But I am afraid she did not age very well. The book "b*tch" talks about all these teenage actresses who seemed so beautiful and promising , but faded quickly, for one reason or another. I think Olivia Hussey was a great, great actress, whether she would have kept her looks or not. She is one of my absolutely favorites of all time, if not my favorite.

Olivia aged gracefully. She's still beautiful.
 
She's so freaking adorable/beautiful.<3 Sorry the last three are so small.

She was really gorgeous. I saw a picture of her in a current picture and she looks really different. She sort of looks like Courtney Cox.
 
I don't think anybody really looks like her. She also looks like the epitome of a princess to me. If I were a young girl thinking of who might play a princess the best, I'd pick Olivia Hussey. She has the beauty, the mystery, the undescribable something that sets her apart from the rest of her age group (I'm thinking of her as the fifteen year old who landed the part for Juliet.) She reached a level of perfection in that film, (thanks to Zeffirelli), of spontaneity, ingenuousness, that has remained unmatched. The only young woman who might have competed with her is for the same type of role is Audrey Hepburn (but they are not the same generation). Audrey Hepburn also "had it" in War and Peace, and My Fair Lady. Still, it's a different style, Olivia never looked that sophisticated, just a creature all her own, with all the refinement and passion combined, but somehow untouched by rules and conventions. Thanks for all of you who are posting pictures. I wish I could contribute pictures too !
 
She has a modern face yet could be an iconic actress of the thirties and forties. Such glamour and drama in her face and posture ! What a pity her career was so limited after the first brush with success in her teens.
 
That's true, the pictures in her website don't work at all.:/ And there are so many, and they're so beautiful! LOL

These are my favorites *-* And she has, in my opinion, what it takes to be perfect! And I almost forgot: the source is Facebook.
