Yesterday I was talking about some male celebrities with Leticia (I invited her to watch the second half of The Grand Torino with Clint Eastwood). We remembered some attractive actors who have never aged badly. Besides Eastwood, I remembered Shawn Connery. In my taste, he is better now than before. Today I saw a movie, very European, (My old lady) with Maggie Smith in the leading role. I "met" her old, as the Dowager Countess in Downton Abbey. After that I started to see her in several films, mainly I suppose, because she caught my attention. She is 83 and still working and still doing it well. If you read the Wikipedia, you will see the many awards she has earned, including the title of Dame. And in the US, I am sure that everyone of us, older gals, mourned the day when Paul Newman died. Would you add a special name here?

You should see the movie The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel which boasts an incredible cast of older British actors led by Judi Dench and Maggie Smith.

I fully agree, but he was good looking even when he was young.

@JudyEv Tony Curtis did not really age well. He gained a lot of pounds, lost his hair, you cannot even recognize him.

@LadyDuck He was indeed - and so was Tony Curtis. My Mum thought he was the greatest!

I loved her in the TV shows when I was a child. And then, as adult, in The golden years.

I have always had a crush on Sean Connery. I agree he looks better now than he did as James Bond 80 years ago.

Some sure don't look as old as they actually are. Of course they have the money to get face lifts and the best beauty care money can buy too.

I fully agree that Sean Connery is better now than the times he was young. I would say the same for George Clooney, he is not really old, but much better now that when he was 40. Helen Mirren also aged well.
