While not completely cross-eyed, Mark Harmon's eyes are not exactly parallel;
they are at about 92 degrees. That probably helped him with his field of
vision when he was the QB at UCLA.

Drew Barrymore has a strong jawline, and Jennifer Aniston's could

And Alan Ladd, but they managed to tape them closer to his skull.

How about that awful scar on the right side of George Macready's face? It ran
from his ear to the corner of his mouth and added a sinister touch to the suave
villains he played in the Forties and Fifties.

Lana Turners eyebrows were a different shape in every movie. Later I read that
her eyebrows had been shaved off for an early harem girl part and they never
grew back, thus she pasted on fake ones.

Stockard Channing has a lopsided smile.

I was wondering when someone was going to bring him up. Another classic
"odd" face belongs to character actor Michael Berryman, who appeared in
"The Hills Have Eyes," and other films. Aside from having distinctive
faqcial features, he also has the unfortunate distinction of having no
pores, therefore, he cannot perspire.

He also doesn't appear to have had his teeth capped, which is
pretty revolutionary, these days.

I almost hate to mention Shannon Doherty's mis-matched eyes.
She looks like a Picasso portrait.

And Joe Spinell's whole face, basically...

Carole Lombard had a scar on her face, the result of a serious car accident
in 1926. Any kind of scar on a leading actress was pretty unusual in the 30s
when she was making her classic films.

For that Picasso look you need go no further than the truly odd face of the
quirky Spanish actress Rossy de Palma (_Women on the Verge of a Nervous
Breakdown_, _Kika_, _Ready to Wear_, etc.).

I think she's a hottie, but where does Julia Stiles fit on the "Unusual
Facial Features" scale?

Even someone who's gorgeous, has some unusual feature that makes them look
unique. I've always found Brad Pitt's prominent nostrils off-putting, plus
his face is kinda scarred up. But he is, nonetheless, a hard-bodied,
square-jawed, cute/handsome guy with an engaging persona.(Swoon...what I
wouldn't do to trade places with Jennifer Aniston for a day.)

From what I've heard, from people who've studied these things, the key
concept is BALANCE. Brad Pitt has two *matching* glaring nostrils. Brooke
Shields has two *matching* bushy eyebrows. On the other hand, if any
feature, matching or not, is EXTREME, that can put the kibosh on
attractiveness.

Rock Hudson is the one actor or actress who has always seemed unnaturally
perfect looking to me. There was an implacability(is that a word?) about the
way that he photographed that I believe kept the audience from really
identifying with him. Though, it could just be me, because he was quite
popular in his day...

Also Lee Van Cleef. With all of Leone's trademark facial closeups, The
Good, the Bad, and the Ugly was something of a squinting contest.

Charles Bronson had a really chilling squint, too.
