There's only one I don't think is too gorgeous.

Evelyn Laye's pose reminds me a bit of beautiful Princess Diana.

Not sure how to express it, but there's a look in their eyes and facial expressions that simply don't exist any more. Wow.

It's an aesthetic that is less common now. But good eye makeup is still a thing.

At least with faces.

Ione Bright looks very much like Michelle Pfeiffer.

Dorothy Mackaill looks like a lighter-haired (maybe red-headed?) Winona Ryder

Connie Stuart is a Jodie Foster clone.

For the life of me, I can't think of the actresses who resemble Vanessa Parker and Evelyn Laye, but I know it'll come to me, soon enough.
