Female movie stars used to be beautiful

Jenny Agutter may have been my first real movie star crush, and I think its pretty obvious how that could happen. Even with shorter hair, she’s a true beauty.

Here’s a modern Jenny, who happens to be a much, much bigger “star” than my crush ever was.

Dakota Johnson is complete blank spot when she’s in a movie. She’s the daughter of two mid-list stars of 30 years ago, but has no discernible talents of her own. She’s a total 5. Not ugly, but not cute either.
