Fletch, you amases me. How did you happen to know that song???

Gable!

It has to be Errol Flynn.

There you go. I agree with you. Flynn and Gable had it in spades with their moustaches. :eusa_clap

Not a movie star, but he married one. This dapper prince had a perfect pencil thin moustache when he was younger, got a little more bushy in his old age.

When I was young, it was Clark Gable by a mile. Mother said he wasn't as popular until he grew that moustache. I've seen photos and movies of him without it, doesn't seem right.

The second one works, the first one doesn't. It's the best image, anyway.

I just had my mother drop by to help me and she came up with two movie stars from the 30's-40's who had the perfect thin moustache. Let's see if these images come up.

If it shows, it is Ronald Coleman

If it shows, it is Robert Taylor, who, like Gable, did not wear a moustache early in his career.

Mother may think of more. Her first utterance, when I asked her who she thought of when she remembered the pencil thin moustaches of Hollywood actors, was "William Powell," followed, of course, by Gable.

It's gotta be Flynn, the rest, while good, are merely poseurs...

No Doubt in my mind, It has to be Errol Flynn.

Well…

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Maybe this was make-up, maybe not. He certainly seems to have dense growth. In any event this is a great moustache. A very Gable-esque look for Clooney in this movie.

[Shaul-Ike Cohen]

Considering the picture below, the strong and dense pencil moustache in "Brother…" might have been at least enhanced, or simply glued on.

Morals:

- Who cares, the chap looks sharp with it, and it suits him naturally.
- Techniques improved since Groucho Marx.
- When I can't grow a pencil moustache, at least I'm in good company.

I'm not sure who this character is, but he looks awfully familiar. And his mustache actually looks like it was applied with a pencil. A real pencil mustache . . . . . . . . . . .

Looks like Ritchie Blackmore to me. Though I'm not sure if it's him. He does tend to dress up that way at the Renn Fairs though.

How's about Melvyn Douglas? A sharp stache and an underappreciated acting talent to boot.
