Why did a 25 year old Laura Dern look so old in Jurassic Park?

25? Holy shit she was haggard for 25.
Don't bully Laura Dern
>>71236922
I thought she was my moms age when I saw this as a kid
>>71236950
this gives me an idea for a new meme

Because some people don't age very well. Now she's in her 50's and looks like she's 60.
>>71236950
I really hate that kike.
>>71237038
Fuck off Laura
She survived a movie where she fucked Nicolas Cage for 2 hours. That will age you pretty fast.

Actually she's 49. Born in 1967.So she was only in her late 30s when Inland Empire was filmed.

You now realize that this was also Sir Richard Attenborough.
At 40 nonetheless.

I remember hearing they purposely made her look old so the quasi romance with Dr. Grant wasn't quite so creepy.

Maybe because Sam Neil is an older gentlemen we thought his girlfriend would be old as him
>>71237360
>Sam Neil is 19 years older than his character's girlfriend
HNNNGHH

Meh, it happens a lot in academia for there to be large age gaps in relationships.
I mean, how many young attractive, female paleontologists are there? Why shouldn't she be dating and older successful gentleman?
White women...
A few reasons.
Her fashion choices were more popular with women in their 30s and 40s at the time, and in a few years became nearly exclusive to them.
She is tall for a woman, and this makes children think she is older.
Children in general have a difficult time telling the age of adults, particularly women from 20 to 50. Her pairing with Sam Neil leads a child to think they must be around the same age, not 19 years apart.
I have experienced this with my nieces and nephews asking them to guess the age of actors and actresses on television. They were usually wildly inaccurate.
Scarlet Johansson? 22 (she's 31)
Elizabeth Olsen? 35 (she's 27)
she's bruce dern's daughter
bruce dern is eternally 70

No lips... makes her look older.

Holy shit you're right

in addition to all of this, she doesn't have the features we associate with youth, like higher facial fat. her phenotype, post-pubescent, could only ever appear to be an "adult" face.
a male example of this would be jon hamm, who talked about how at 25 the only parts he'd get offered in teen shows like dawson's creek were the father roles.

I've seen this thread I don't know how many times, and I'm always surprised to remember this. She looked 25 in Blue Velvet.
