(Matewan still from defunct tumblr pinewood-to-hollywood)

Someday I will stop being fundamentally nettled when guys I think of as weathered 50+ actors turn up in old movies *smoking hot*. Chris Cooper is magnetic for all of Matewan (1987)! (No one is surprised that young David Strathairn was hot in that.) I just saw Rolling Thunder (1977) and I did not need to know that you could bounce a quarter off Tommy Lee Jones’s ass at 31, with the connivance of tight khakis!

(Rolling Thunder still does not show the butt, but is from the scene where I realized this numismatic butt-feat was very feasible.)

Obviously all old-lady actresses used to be hot. That’s the only way women got work in Hollywood, and never surprises me.

#chris cooper #matewan #old actor #tommy lee jones was pretty alarming in this but I had to notice that ass #you know mary mcdonnell’s character agrees #rolling thunder #most of my feelings about matewan are high-minded Union feelings but that Union organizer is a snack #tommy lee jones #vintage hottie

actually I will say something about this:

setting up a romance line but waiting until one of the actors is a freshly legal adult before executing it is creepy, actually, especially when the co-star is 15 years older

#i am exactly 10 years older than aiden so i can tell you that shits weird #the umbrella academy #apparently aiden was 19 kissing a 34 year old actress just to clarify (ps 18-20 year olds are NOT minors either don't get it twisted)#just cause it's legal doesn't mean it's not weird for producers to do that #yes it's acting but that's an excuse hollywood loves to use when putting young actors in scenes with much older actors #also muting this now cause i'm not even in this fandom

I’m sorry, but the Netflix showrunner referring to Kataang as an “issue to tackle” in the future is some of the funniest shit I’ve ever read/heard.

#the way I choked #he was directly referencing k@taang in his answer too.#the age gap was already a problem in the original show #now you just see it the way Zutara has the entire time because you see it in real life actors their age #the maturity difference between a 12 and 14 year old is insane #he literally said he was relieved he didn’t have to deal with it this season #and he just kept going too 😭#I’m not a fan of the ship but DAMN he did them so dirty #avatar the last airbender #zutara #atla live action #anti k@taang

Something about how physically small Ellie looks in this episode just makes it all so much more intense. How little she is curled next to Joel, how big the rifle looks when she holds it, the way David is able to pick her up so easily. The contrast in the size of their hands when he's telling her that she, a 14-year-old, is his only equal, and how tiny hers look when she wraps her arms around Joel; the way his coat reaches her knees when he drapes it over her. Every second the camera spends on her is forcing you to look at how young she is and it just makes it all so much more awful.

#honestly hats off to bella ramsey they deserve an emmy stat for this episode #also proves the point that the problem with the way teens/young people are shown on screen isnt just that they're played by actors much #older but that everything about the way they're written styled and framed wants you to see them as 25 year olds instead of babies #bella is obviously on the younger side of 'older' casting but the show is actively trying to make her look like a child and it works #the last of us #tlou #the last of us spoilers #tlou spoilers #the last of us episode 8 spoilers #ellie williams #ellie tlou #joel miller
