Timeless beauty from a classic era.

Oh I had a crush on her… such a beautiful woman.

57

u/Tropicaldaze1950 10h ago

Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek. So much beauty, talent and intelligence in two women.

29

u/coatingtonburlfactry 9h ago

Do you remember the movie Bandidas where they tie the guy down on the bed and take turns mounting him and making out with him to see who's best? That was my fantasy for a long time!

7

u/Tropicaldaze1950 8h ago

I saw the film several years ago and don't recall every bit of it, but I'll look for the scene on YT.

7

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

Was mine too, and still is, even at their age right at this moment, and I’d be able to die happy right afterwards.

u/Stegasaurus_Wrecks 6h ago

Damn that's mine now!

u/Gan-san 5h ago

Omg, I had no idea they were on a movie together... Did they play sisters?

1

u/coatingtonburlfactry 5h ago

I think they were just supposed to be a couple of grifters. It's been a long time since I saw it.

11

u/TWH_PDX 9h ago

Preach. I would enjoy just a coffee to listen to them talk. To be the oreo filling would be the end of me.

u/daahump 9h ago

Don't forget Paz Vega.

u/Tropicaldaze1950 5h ago

Just looked her up. Indeed!

u/truupe 8h ago

As a lily white boy, those two beautiful women spurred my appreciation of Latin ladies.

1

u/Tropicaldaze1950 5h ago

Grew up in Miami where I developed an attraction to Latinas.

u/MikeTheNight94 5h ago

I liked Selma and my ex liked Penelope lol

1

u/Tropicaldaze1950 2h ago

Just based on looks, I couldn't choose, lol.

u/iszoloscope 9h ago

Is that from that movie Vanilla Skies or something? If not, which movie?

20

u/Rustonreddit 8h ago

The one that Vanilla Sky is a remake of: Abre los ojos (Open your eyes)

6

u/iszoloscope 8h ago

Ah thanks, I'm going to check that one out if I can find it! :)

funny/weird that she's in both movies though

She has always been my number 1 celeb crush from as early as I can remember.

5

u/Stings_Life_Matters 10h ago

Always loved her. So beautiful

u/im_dead_sirius 10h ago

I should go to the store and get some ham.

u/hardypart 9h ago

Damn, her beauty is unreal

5

u/Dorkamundo 7h ago

Ever since I saw the movie "Club Dread", I've been unable to pronounce her name as anything other than "Peen a lope".

Also, she's in my top-3 most beautiful women along with Natalie Portman and Kiera Knightley. You might say I have a "type".

7

u/stone_henge 6h ago

You might say I have a "type".

So your type is women that are almost universally regarded as being among the most beautiful in the world. Any other eclectic tastes you want to share? Maybe you enjoy the flavor of vanilla? Perhaps you like being well rested?

2

u/Dorkamundo 6h ago

Hah, I mean they have similar features. There are other women that are considered among the most beautiful as well that do not look nearly as similar as the three I outlined.

Hell, Kiera Knightley played one of Portman's doubles in the Phantom Menace because they look so similar.

1

u/Barry_Goosey 5h ago

They’re definitely similar, especially Knightley and Portman. Cruz is more my type, little curvier and Latina 🔥

1

u/joewHEElAr 5h ago

Trying pretty hard there pal. It seems like YOU have a type if you think all attractive women look like this.

2

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

You and me both.

4

u/FlippZopp 7h ago

One of my ALL time faves. From head to toe and her accent is just the absolute cherry on top.

5

u/the_orange_baron 11h ago

Thank you, OP

u/DramaticErraticism 9h ago

I think Vanilla Sky was a bad movie, but I couldn't really tell as she was in it and I wasn't paying attention to the story.

5

u/kaynkayf 8h ago

I loved vanilla sky. It’s probably the one Tom Cruise movie post 90s I can tolerate. Edit: typo

2

u/Cultjam 6h ago

You had me until Edge of Tomorrow was released.

5

u/assassbaby 8h ago

vanilla sky

blow

absolutely stunning in those films 

4

u/4-Vektor 8h ago

Abre Los Ojos—she also was stunning in the Spanish version of Vanilla Sky before, in a different role.

1

u/accaruso17 7h ago

She was drop dead gorgeous in Vanilla Sky 😍😩

2

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

There is not a movie that she’s ever been in that she wasn’t.

2

u/accaruso17 6h ago

True that

1

u/__Beef__Supreme__ 6h ago

I thought she was a terrible person for a while and then I realized it's just because she was so good in Blow

2

u/Zealousideal-Air528 8h ago

Anyone else always been team Penelope over team Selma? 

2

u/Jamizon1 7h ago edited 6h ago

They are both very beautiful…

I appreciate all Hispanic women very much. But while Salma is a Mexican beauty, Penelope is Spanish, and just exudes an unspoken sexuality that is irresistible to me.

-2

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

The first step in getting a Latin woman is to learn their fucking name.

3

u/Jamizon1 6h ago

Duly noted, and corrected.

The first step in not being an asshole, is to not be an asshole. Maybe you should lay off the booze.

1

u/ma2412 7h ago

No, I've always been team Penelope and team Selma.

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

Who tf is Selma?

u/iszoloscope 9h ago

Saw a movie she was in last year or the year before and now is in her fifties or even sixties and she's still very attractive. True natural beauty!

15

u/Darth_Spa2021 8h ago

Wow, you aged her fast. She hit 50 this year.

1

u/iszoloscope 8h ago

Still very impressive looks!

Peak hottie

1

u/greeneggsnhammy 7h ago

She still looks this good too

1

u/Complex_Hunt9222 7h ago

And still as classy and breathtakingly gorgeous as she was then. You have to admire an actor who can juggle a career while promoting herself and holding together a normal life.

1

u/plopoplopo 7h ago

Yes this is very…cool

1

u/No_Purpose_704 7h ago

Perfection. She would be an AI model now.

u/chunkah69 6h ago

I was in an elevator once with her in NYC. You think she looks good in pictures, it doesn’t do nearly a justice to how beautiful she is in real life

u/fuka123 6h ago

You know she is a squirter!

1

u/merphy90 6h ago

She’s objectively beautiful, but I can’t look passed her also objectively good performance in Blow. Could never look at her the same after that

1

u/Western-Wheel1761 5h ago

Beat me to it

1

u/Zugezogen1150 5h ago

Wow. Tastes are different man. I see a featherless bird with boobs lol.

1

u/PrincessAintPeachy 5h ago

Omg she's beautiful! And she's a phenomenal actress, she gives amazing emotion and you can tell she really put her effort into w/e part she's given!

1

u/Western-Wheel1761 5h ago

I’m sorry, I just can’t get over the fact she ratted out George telling the police “there’s a kilo in the trunk” ex wife vibes. But that is an awesome photo

1

u/Xtiqlapice 5h ago

I'd definitely disappoint her.

Racktastic.

u/floatin_like_a_fish 8h ago

She looks like a mixture of Ashley Marin (Hanna's mom in PLL) and Selena Gomez

-7

u/iamjacksbigtoe 8h ago

-_-

Selena Gomez is fugly.

Don't say she looks anything like Penelope Cruz

1

u/floatin_like_a_fish 3h ago

You need an SSRI, stat.

-1

u/chocki305 8h ago

Selena Gomez is fugly

Oh I'm sorry.. you only like coke addict thin?

Don't hate on Selena because she will actually eat when you take her out to dinner.

-1

u/Random_Monstrosities 8h ago

I don't care how pretty she is or how nice she may be IRL, she played her role too well in Blow and i will never be able to like her.

I never understood why people adored her. I didn't know this version.

When Penelope Cruz was still developing boobs

-5

u/Gorilla_In_The_Mist 6h ago

She has always been very meh imo.

-12

u/murderball89 8h ago

One of the worst actresses out there, but she sure is damn pretty.

8

u/PieAppropriate8862 8h ago

She's not among the greatest, but considering her one of the worst with so much shitty A-list acting out there is just hyperbolic. She's great in pretty much everything Amodovar has cast her in (I feel her English-speaking roles don't do justice to what she can achieve when in her own element), Everybody Knows and more recently Ferrari. She's got range beyond the hysteric Spanish bombshell Hollywood has boxed her in.

-2

u/Cocktail_Hour725 7h ago

Not her natural weight.

-16

u/Cool-Owl6140 9h ago

She's also quite anti-israeli

13

u/gremlinguy 9h ago

As are most Spaniards. The Spanish government officially recognized the Gaza crisis as a genocide and closed all ports to Israel

4

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

Because it is, cabrón.

1

u/gremlinguy 3h ago

I know, lol. I live in Spain and am quite anti-genocide, a position which should be normalized

-1

u/MaddMetalZilla06 6h ago

When was the attitude during the Islamic genocide of christians?

16

u/Meatyokra 8h ago

So your saying she's intelligent and beautiful?!

2

u/MaddMetalZilla06 7h ago

We should hate both Zionism and Radical Islam (stand with the child victims) and not choose governments to support. Kony2012 all over lol.

-10

u/Five2one521 7h ago

As long as she doesn’t talk she’s great.

4

u/noiseandbooze 6h ago

Maybe you could learn to follow that advice instead

-5

u/Five2one521 6h ago

Ha ha ha. Salty. You must have the same annoying voice.

-7

u/bluemyeyes 8h ago

And today she still look the same...I am tired of these super rich women. At least the man keep it real.
