Game: In this brave new face mask world, the eyes have it. 

Okay. Ready to play a game? Not everyone's eyes are as unforgettable as Bette Davis... 

But movie star eyes do tend to be wonderful to look at since eyes are the window to the soul and it's the actors job to project humanity, soul, and all else to us. Only answer ONE question at a time in the comments to give a chance for multiple people to play.

Tell us WHAT FAMOUS ACTOR you're looking at in the following 26 photos. Ready? Set. Go ! ...

Well done james I think you’re right! Thank you so much i’v been thinking about this And I could not go to sleep without knowing the answer and it’s almost 4 am here !😂😂😂

April 12, 2020 | Unregistered CommenterAmirfarhang

Jiggy -- you are correct!

James -- tada! you have completed the game.

April 12, 2020 | Registered CommenterNATHANIEL R

Fun game! I did better than I thought I would (wrong Robert Mitchum guess notwithstanding - well played, James!). Got more of the contemps than the classics, though it's tough to mistake either O or X, they are so iconic.

M was killing me, glad it was guessed sooner rather than later.

As a person of Asian descent, I'm proud I got both G and W. :)

April 12, 2020 | Unregistered CommenterLynn Lee

Debbie Reynolds! When I was looking at D's eyes I was all "Why do I want to say Carrie Fisher? Oh well, moving on." Why my mind didn't jump to that next step, I'll never know.

Anyways, as someone who guessed first, just wanted to say I just wanted to pick someone towards the bottom who I knew 100% and Saoirse's eyes were undeniable.

April 12, 2020 | Unregistered CommenterRyan T.

I totally missed this and I demand a new edition.

April 13, 2020 | Unregistered CommenterPeggy Sue

Peggy Sue. I'll see what I can do. I thought it was fun.

April 13, 2020 | Registered CommenterNATHANIEL R

I think that now there are quite a lot of different sites and platforms where you can buy cs go skins, so it’s difficult to recommend something to you. Start with this article https://www.33rdsquare.com/how-to-sell-csgo-skins-fast-and-securely/ to simply learn more about cs go skins and perhaps find some tips and recommendations for purchasing.
