Each day in December I'll be celebrating a handsome man. You may ask why, but there's no meaningful reply I can give other than: why not? They'll be revealed over the next 31 days in strict alphabetical order, so no favouritism. And you never know, I might celebrate 31 women in January...!
ROCK HUDSON, 1925-1985
Rock typifies the square-jawed Hollywood matinee idol look. I've always thought he had a look of a young Sylvester Stallone, but the two are genuinely incomparable in pretty much every way! Rock had lovely, smiley eyes and a physique straight out of Photoplay Magazine, and managed to make the transition from Westerns and war films to romantic lead, usually opposite Doris Day. His high profile death from Aids in 1985 was an important step in raising awareness of the disease across the world.
Rock was Stallone's bio father. So you totally saw that. Good eye
