Mirren wins, hands down… the Hollywood types are just full of botox and crap. Mirren seems to be one of those “naturally aged” ladies who is just aging with grace and dignity. I hope we all look that good at her age. 🙂 ---

[QUOTE=K364] See [Princess Bride - 20 Years Later](http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/popup?id=3370726&contentIndex=1&page=1&start=false) and prepare to be sad. Oddly enough, the only one who’s looking good is the evil Prince Humperdink (Chris Sarandon) [/QUOTE] I am sad. ---

[Ringo Starr](http://www.ringostarr.com/home.php) is one fine looking 60 year old. [Paul McCartney](http://www.contactmusic.com/news.nsf/article/mccartney%20to%20play%20in%20israel_1074567), on the other hand, is a dried up prune face. ---

I’m surprised no one has mentioned Diane Lane. She gets BETTER looking the older she gets.

[QUOTE=Shirley Ujest] Nah, his face bloated out. I am now officially depressed. [/QUOTE] I wonder if he’s on medication for something? The last thing I saw him in he didn’t look that bloaty. Robin Wright looks pretty good since it looks like she’s not wearing any makeup and good for her, too, for not caring about a few wrinkles and butchering her face with plastic surgery. ---

As a young teen, I had a crush on Harry Belafonte. [Harry Belafonte in 1963, age 36.](http://pochapocha.com/images/Albums/Harry%20Belafonte%20Christmas%20album.jpg) He still looks yummy to me. [Harry Belafonte in 2006, age 79](http://www.imdb.com/media/rm826513920/nm0000896). It just occurred to me that maybe one reason I find him so attractive is that he resembles [my father](http://www.mortalwombat.com/Special/Pinkie_with_Papa.jpg) :eek: ---
