MANILA, Philippines?They say that the eyes are the windows of the soul.

Some of Hollywood?s legendary stars are known for their eyes: Elizabeth Taylor?s blue-violet orbs helped convey the emotions of her complex characters in ?Taming of the Shrew? and ?Cleopatra.? Ava Gardner?s arched eyebrows and green eyes gave her a distinct, cat-like look when she portrayed characters like Pandora and Venus.

Style

Audrey Hepburn?s unconventional features included thick eyebrows and big eyes that lent style and character to the roles that brought her fame: A lonely princess gone AWOL, a nun and a cockney flower vendor-turned-Fair Lady. Sophia Loren?s lynx-like green eyes and distinctive eyebrows are best remembered in her roles as a Spanish peasant and Sicilian sexpot.

You can?t talk about eyes and not recall Greta Garbo?s expressive eyes and thin, arched eyebrows. With those eyes, she was Catherine the Great, Ninotchka and Camille. Equally memorable were Marlene Dietrich?s orbs in her movies in the 1930s and late ?50s.

Rivals Bette Davis and Joan Crawford owned peepers that allowed them to play royals and vamps with equal ease. While Bette exploited hers to convey the look of a victim, Crawford used hers to fight back!
