Hey Ray--
I love a man who wears a cowboy hat and boots well (especially if that's all they have on)! I agree with your choices totally--One movie per letter is so constricting! Still, I have to go with La Bette in All About Eve and I do loves me some Helen Mirren. She was the best Queen since Scott Thompson in Kids In the Hall: Brain Candy! Love your Blog!
