Did you fall in love with a character from a film as a kid?

I remember seeing the excellent 1972 comedy What's up doc? as a teen. I absolutely fell for Barbra Streisand in the role of a wacky, very forward woman in pursuit of Ryan O'Neal. I've not particularly been a fan of Barbra in anything else, but in that film I adored her.

Any character that did it for you when you were young?

    When I was a nipper, I was totally captivated by Liz Sladen as Sarah Jane Smith in Doctor Who. Strange innit! as I was only 6 or 7 and it can't really be sexual attraction at that age.

    Only a Fool Would Say That.

    Remember having a bit of a crush on Bo Derek and Victoria Principle.

    You've already given my answer.  I'm no fan of Streisand either, but I'm in love with her in that film.

    Also when I was really young, there was an actress called Kim Richards, who was in a number of Disney things including Escape to Witch Mountain.  She's my age and I definitely fell for her.

    It seems she grew up to be a bit of a loon with a very troubled personal life and ended up on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    I didn’t see that until I was older, but yes :).

    When I was very young I remember being completely enchanted by Audrey Hepburn in Green Mansions and Vivien Leigh in Waterloo Bridge.
