OLD 55 Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 DID ANYONE LOOK AT THIS It was the third Post in this Thread, but nobody commented on it at all. This is by courtesy of Uncle Joe. Thanks Mate. This is more than just fun to watch, it is amazing. Click on the link below. Chances are, you will see all of your favorite actresses (from the '30's on up to the present) at some point during this presentation. The "morphing" is remarkable. Whoever put this together deserves some accolades. WOMEN IN FILM (Please Click Here). A truly magical presentation in under 2 1/2 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Well Darryl I tried but the link is broken. I forgot about it the first time around and in the deleting/moving process something obviously happened to it. I tried to go back to the original post, but you'd deleted it.
