But she doesn't have violet eyes.
And another candidate for Arwen:
Vivien Leigh -- Might be a little too fiery, though.
More Metabolically- challenged folks:
Ava Gardner-- she'd make an etheral Luthien
Leslie Howard--he might make a decent Legolas
Douglas Fairbanks--might do for Glorfindel |

I agree he'd make a better Aragorn, but we were trying to stick to elves here...
But hey, if Elrond counts, don't the part-elf Numenoreans count too?

i've always thought that Paul Bettany would make a GREAT Glorfindel. http://www.efanguide.com/~paulbettany/
and in the metabolically-challenged category...
http://www.tvstars.com.ar/r/river_phoenix/ okay, so that's not the best pic, but he'd still make a good Elf.
oh, and i almost forgot Mipam Thurman. this pic is a classic "moody model" pic, but get rid of that silly expression and you have a nice Elf. [/url]http://models.com/model_culture/50topmalemodels/top50.cfm?fnumber=45&lnumber=41[url]

There is some SERIOUS eye-candy at that site. Lots of Elves, and a couple of Numenoreans, too.
If only it was a catalog....

Me neither, I'm afraid. How about Rutger Hauer as he looked in Ladyhawke except with much longer hair? I could see him as Thranduil too. _________________ LOTR lover |

Of course... the much-missed River. But I don't know... the hairdo definitely reminds me of that son o Feanor, you know the one with the spiky do (forget which one and don't have book-resources nearby right now). But him. You know of whom I speak.  |

Yes. Pretty, pretty Aegnor. The only boy elf ever to love a mortal woman.

Ah. Here's this old thread. *dusts off the buggies* Somebody sent me a picture of the young man who is likely to be the next prince of monaco. As the sender of said link noted, this kid looks totally like an elf to me:
Modern elves = illuminati? |
