Gwyneth Paltrow Has Never Looked Hotter

Sorry to be a typcial dude about this but I remember when this came out and all I could think when I saw the trailer was that she looked damn good in it and then having watched this again recently I still think she has never looked more beautiful. Maybe it was the character or she was just feeling especially sexy during this period but she looks so good in this movie.

anyone else agree?

Everyone has a period in their lives where they are at the very best they will ever look. For Gwyneth this movie was that period. Everything about her was stunning. Her hair, her body, her skin. Everything was working for her.
In fairness she still looks gorgeous now. A lot better than a lot of actresses that started out at the same time as her. Even after having kids her body still looks the same as it did in this movie.

I agree. The scene where she strips and poses nude for Ethan Hawke is stunning. She has all of the power in this scene and that comes through in her performance. She shows absolute confidence and control throughout with her facial expressions and body movements. Definitely one of her great moments as an actress.

May be the hottest an actress has ever looked for any movie ever. Seriously.

Eh, she still looks hot now.

She can't act so she better bring something to the table. I think she's an expressionless horse face no-talent.

That's not a typical dude, just aesthetic appreciation for a tastefully done, very very sexy movie all the way around. To be tantalized from childhood through early adult and into full adulthood! Hawk was phenomenal and so was Paltrow in putting over the breathlessness. She was strikingly lit and gently edited in this. You might also like Shallow Hal (very sexy) and Sylvia (very intelligent) -- Gwyneth Paltrow is one of the greats our time -- like Garbo, Grable and Monroe.

"Hot"? More like skeletal.

I never found her beautiful, but she's gorgeous in this. The only other movie I liked her in was Sliding Doors,with short hair.
