Smoking, alcohol, no sunscreen will still age up a person of today by 10 years.

I think also one of them probably had an easier path:

Sean Connery's father was Joseph Connery, a factory worker and lorry driver.

Thomas Brodie-Sangster was the actor and performer, Mark Sangster.

Some people used to be born old. That's just how the world worked. Also, stupid fashion. Have you seen a photo of a woman college student in the 80s? They look 40.

[–] Pacattack57@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Nah just drugs/drinking/smoking. He has admitted he started smoking at 9

Those huge glasses that were in vogue in the 80's did no one any favors.

Thomas is like a genetically engineered femboy for Hollywood billionaires.

No need to go out and molest nubile young boys in the Caribbean, this bad boy is of legal age and doesn't look a day past 15.

Like a human version of a toy dog, but with a genetically superior bussy.

Idk man, I've always looked way younger than my age when shaved, but not that extreme. Skin care or not, I would not want to look like that at 34.

[–] tigermountain@lemmy.world 10 points 6 days ago (2 children)

These pictures are due to two things; genetics and lighting. Even though dude on right looks younger generally, if he was photographed in the same light as Connery they would look much closer in age.

[–] hildegarde@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

You can see the shadow on the wall behind him. There is a light below his eyeline. That's called a beauty light, and it hides wrinkles by lighting the areas that would be in shadow from lights above.

But smoking also has a lot to do with it.

Here his is in dr no a year later looking more like he's 40 instead of 55, given he's in makup, but the crows-feet smile lines aren't doing him any favors.

and here he is 7 years later in 71 (41 years old) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sean_Connery#/media/File:Sean_Connery_as_James_Bond_(1971).jpg

TBH, the effect on skin from smoking seem to hit like a truck in the 40's, that's gotta be severe tanning, smoking and some really rough genetics.

[–] Colalextrast@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

He would have been early 30s in Dr No, it was released two years before Goldfinch. Still, though, it's crazy how much the lifestyles of previous generations differ from current lifestyles and how you can literally read it on people's faces.

[–] mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

Goldfinch

goooooldddFINCHAAAAA... .the bird with the MIDAS TOUCH! Such a coooold finchaahhh

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 days ago

And crazy enough, He grew up in Scottland, That puts you on the less likely end of the scale to grow up with too much sun :)

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 10 points 6 days ago

Peter Capaldi and William Hartnell were same age bracket when they played the Doctor.

Amazing what not living through a depression and world war can do for ya

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 6 days ago

How are even Connery's earlobes masculine?

[–] Snapz@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago (1 children)

But I always sat in the NON-SMOKING section of the airplane?

That's Pierce Brosnan, famous for his role as Mister Doubtfire and the voice of Genie in Aladdin

She's a lot less blue than I remember, but that's her.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

One is out there doing hard living and the other is using youthful skin creams, prescribed by his publicist.

[–] DankDingleberry@lemmy.world 2 points 6 days ago

its mostly the lighting, the hair style and the amount of make up they throw on thomas before fotographing
