are you really allowed to be that racially offensive- how can you say that white is sexy and black is not- where does it say that? who tells you that? and I dont know what country YOU are from but Al Pacino and Marlon are Italian ie Meditteranean- and therefore not "white" in any sense- I doubt they would call themselves that. Oh I am very disappointed.>>>


I would say blair underwood- IS sexy- and will smith
>>IS sexy an halle berry IS sexy- and they are all
>>non-white. What about Salma Hayek? Antonio Banderas?
>>Al Pacino? Marlon Brando? Ray Liotta? COME ON!
>>:)

>>Some 43 seducers mentioned. Well, I guess my
>>>heterosexuality is safe for another year. I found
>none
>>>of them particularly sexy.
>>>
>>>They did get one thing totally wrong, which made me
>>>question the whole special. They said the vampire was
>>>not sexy. (Our Amanda in "Lair of the White Worm"
>>>anyone?) The vampire has been sexy since Bela Lugosi
>>>was wowing the women in the audience with his
>>>portrayal of Dracula in the stage version of
>>"Dracula."
>>>
>>>Actually, someone needs to do a television special
>>>about sex in horror films. If it's been shown in a
>>>film, it's probably been shown in a horror film
>first.
>>>
>>>They did get one thing right. James Bond makes any
>>>actor sexy. Pierce Brosnan, Sean Commery, Roger
>Moore,
>>>and even Timoty Dalton, who they did not mention.
>>>Unfortunately, the only American actor to play James
>>>Bond is Ed Nelson in a television version of "Casino
>>>Royale."
>>>
>>>Which is one more thing American men have to worry
>>>about. While only 16% of the seductresses were
>>>foreigners, more then twice that number of seducers
>>>were foreigners.
>>>
>>>White is sexy. Black is not. Again while 16% if the

>>>Some two dozen films. If these are chick flicks, it

>>>surprising how few of them I have seen and liked.
>>>Actually, the only one was "The King and I."
>>>
>>>Actually, the program could have been longer. Most of
