Unfortunately, Sam, we all have suffered the sad consequences of that day's horrific events. I so regret my country's over-reaction to the nihlistic terror attacks of six years ago. Such grief and woe!

I was just a little kid when Grace Kelly died, but later discovered her work watching Alfred Hitchcock movies.
She was his ideal 'cool blonde'. (As it is, Dial M for Murder and Rear Window are among my favourite Hitch movies.)

Amazing it's been 25 years...

Grace Kelly was truly a classic beauty. Strikingly beautiful, elegant and, well, graceful. Swanlike.

Hello everyone. I'm the new boy. I am previleged to be a part of this great group of people on this forum.

I would like to add Audrey Hepburn to the list here (born Edda Kathleen Hepburn-Ruston - May 4 1929-Jan 20 1993) :angel: What an incredible actress she was. Apparently, her face was perfectly formed. She had the screen presence of an angel and she graced it like a swan.

This is Jonathan signing off till next time. :D
