Plus, DC’s IMDb pic is more flattering. An aside–you just KNOW Betty White (93?) knows things,… right? 😉 ---

Another vote for Helen Mirren. Raquel Welch still looks…good, I guess, but it’s so obvious that she’s had extensive work done that it takes the shine off for me. ---

> [@Darth\_Sensitive](#): > > Marlee Matlin - 48 I’d have sworn she was older; not that she looks it but she’s been famous for almost three decades now. And your taste is impeccable. ---

I’m suprised no one has mentioned Christi Brinkley.

Richard Gere was born in 1949. He appears to be healthy in body, mind and behavior. That’s attractive to me. ---

Olivia Newton-John still looks pretty good, for a 66-year-old gal. Adrienne Barbeau (69) gets an honorable mention just for looking passable without doing plastic surgery. ---

I already responded, but as long as we’re raising the zombie I gotta add one more: Peter Capaldi (56). He’s really growing on me in his turn as the Doctor, to the point where I had to go out and get “The Thick of It” on DVD so I can see more of him. 🙂 ---

As in “would do” and not just think “he’s a good looking guy”- probably Viggo Mortensen. He’s 8.5 years my senior. I more than atone for this seemingly small age range by being more than willing to do Taylor Lautner and some other guys who are young enough to be my kids. 😉 ---
