Ol' George there looks a healthy 45. Wonder which brand of cigarettes his doctor prescribed
post
I think the diiference is cigarettes, everywhere, all the time in the 1960s
Cigarettes, and sunlight.
The amount of damage sunlight can do to your skin if you don't use appropriate protection, is astonishing.
Leaded gasoline, plus a heavy dose of regular drinking.
While true, our skin's still pretty tough in our 20s no matter what, plenty of collagen and such. I know this is partly lucky genes, but I was as baby-faced as Holland at 29 and I smoked heavily and had no care for sun protection. At 55, I still have little care for sun protection as I have to spend all day on the water, in the summer, to get even slightly pink.
Tom Holland is playing a college kid, George Lazenby a 40 year old James Bond.
oh fuck.
given the complete different style of action. one acrobatic twink, other is guns. though a better comparison is with Jon Bernthal.. and they look similar. but Jon is 50 years old!!!!
Lighting helps.
Not this crap again.
Dustin Hoffman was 30 years old in The Graduate (1967). Sean Connery looked like he could've been 30 in his high school yearbook photo. There have always been baby-faced actors, and actors who look older than their age. We could just as easily compare Dick van Dyke at age 30 in 1955 with Bill Skarsgård at age 30 in 2021, and reach similar conclusions about the effects of, say, highly-processed food and microplastics.
They should study this. It should be pretty cheap since you only need to study one person from each era to draw conclusions about whole generations. This is how science and reason work. 🙃

Look at old tar teeth.
Another note, Tom Holland looks almost childlike for your average 29 year old. Really not a good sample for that age group.
Edit: I confused my actors lmao I thought this was Gregory Peck.
Damn the ‘60s were rough on people
It’s almost like a generation brought up on alcohol and cigarettes age quicker !
I get this is just a shitpost but what is it trying to say? Should I be worried that one guy looks younger than the other? Mad? Sad? Happy?
