To answer one of Diane's points, the last movie where I developed a crush on a lead character was Walkabout with Jennie Agutter. In fact it should have been called Lust In The Dust. That lust became a raging inferno when she appeared naked again in Equus.
Because of those two films, along with her girl-next-door looks and her heavenly legs, Miss Agutter has become the quintessential sex goddess of men of my generation.
Anyone who says different either never saw those movies or is gay as a tree full of parrots.
I subsequently went through my Older Woman phase with Lee Remick, then a more normal attraction to Julie Peasgood, a couple of mild dalliances with girls like gymnast Suzanne Dando, then more or less forgot about other women until Ashley Judd.
