How can Julie Christie be 69 and still look amazing???!!!

[LynneSin]

All those women with the botox and trout pouts need to look to women like Christie who age naturally and look amazing. Julie is just beautiful!

[MiddleFingerMom]

1. Answer:

.
She's Julie Christie.
.

[Shell Beau]

2. She is beautiful. I will also say that many 70 year olds these

days are looking damn good. My aunt is 65, and at the fair, they always guess her to be 50. Some people just have good genes. Then again, some people make 65 look like 95. So who knows? But she is beautiful!!!

[Bucky]

3. Because she hasn't had any work done.

Nothing ugs someone up quite like plastic surgery.

[LibDemAlways]

7. You've got that right. The receptionist in my

doctor's office looks like a damn duck. Just hideous. If she'd left well enough alone, she'd have been fine. Whatever happened to aging gracefully?

[madinmaryland]

4. Who is that?

Is she related to the Christie guy that is on Tweety occasionally?

[MrScorpio]

6. You never saw Doctor Zhivago

You can't be that young

[Captain Hilts]

10. Ouch! MadinMaryland's comment really stung, didn't it?

[elleng]

20. Not really, Cap'n,

Just 'proved' that it takes all kinds to make DU! And so near us!

[Captain Hilts]

21. I'm OLD!

[elleng]

23. You and I have more experience than others,

which gives us great benefits.

How's that sell?

Watching West Wing, and CJ said they'd made a serious mistake for DC, that is, 'Telling the truth!'

Good morning!

[MrScorpio]

5. The answer is to stay fit and stay out of the sun

Tanning is another name for aging

[pitohui]

14. "stay out of the sun" in other words give up yr one and only life for vanity

that is not beauty, that is the true ugly that just looking good won't take care of

if you don't get outdoors and live, you're not beautiful no matter what you look like

and, of course, in this case, it's doubly dishonest, since it's obvious from the photo that she's had at least two major procedures

[Maru Kitteh]

18. Taking care of your skin is not vanity - it's responsible prevention.

Staying "out of the sun" can and does include wearing protective clothing.

Tanning for looks? That, is vanity.

[WinkyDink]

43. And the other? Called "osteoporosis." I've been told to GET SOME SUN (I'm 60).

[blue neen]

8. She looks beautiful.

There's spark in her eyes. :)

[Captain Hilts]

9. 'Cause she called up Honor Blackman and asked how it's done naturally....

Blackman's 80+.

[triguy46]

11. A more cynical reason: money.

[rurallib]

12. Lara!

[pitohui]

13. it's called a face and chin lift, honey

if you think she hasn't had work done, you don't have eyes in your head and/or you still believe in santa claus

it's obvious she's had an upper and lower face lift

it's true that botox and collagen ("trout pout") don't do as much as major surgery and it's unfair to expect them to do as much as major surgery because they 5 minutes in the office as opposed to hours of surgery

this is not the result of natural aging and if you think it is you are going to be extremely self-hating when you reach her age and it's unfair to any partner you may have to remain this ignorant

educate yourself and get out and meet genuine old people, not thru adobe photoshop but in the flesh

i'm tired of people who hate all old people and who don't socialize with them then holding up some older person they've seen only on film/video and thinking that's the "real" old person -- the only "real" person i can think of in that age group who hasn't had work done is clint eastwood, once a beautiful young man and now a shriveled up old rotten apple-- THAT'S courage because THAT'S what old age looks like in a state of nature

[MiddleFingerMom]

15. My! My my my my my!!! n/t

[zonkers]

17. Love old people. Chat em up all the time. I even learn a few things.

[elleng]

19. "Old" people?

:rofl:

[Darth_Kitten]

22. My Mom is in her 60's, and barely a wrinkle.......

plus NO work done.....Julie Christie looks very lovely.

I wish I lived in Europe, they worship women over 40. :)

[elleng]

24. me too.

going to europe as quickly as possible.

genetics wins! dad is 96.

[Darth_Kitten]

26. ^ 5 - yup, genetics wins everytime......

And I take after my Mom..... :)

[Kat45]

29. Whats that video clip in your sig?

That's a riot!

[Darth_Kitten]

50. I don't know.....but gotta love it, pigeon attacking someone.

I forgot where I found it, but I just had to have it. :)

[Sebastian Doyle]

66. You need to send that to Thom Hartmann!

If you're a regular listener to his show, you know his theory on pigeons.

(if not, he believes they aren't actually birds, but alien robots sent from Xenu)

[Sanity Claws]

28. She has definitely had a lower face lift

Her jawline is too firm for her age.
Not so sure of the upper face lift.

Whatever was done was done well.

[DFW]

37. Reminds me of my grandfather

When he was 99 years old, he sent out cards at Christmastime with a photo of himself,
looking very much his age, captioned: "Compliments Of The Seasoned."

Old, but not stupid.

[kimmerspixelated]

44. My God, take a big ol chill pill!

I don't think she has had work done. WOuldn't everything be smoother? I admire her beauty as is, and actually respect actresses the more they let the realness wear, like say Jessica Lange and a few others. It does take guts to not be shallow, but mercy on the great Clint Eastwood! He is natural and fine like he is! Sounds like you have age sensitivity problems. Let it go...Breathe!!!

[unabelladonna]

62. jessica lange????

doesn't look like jessica lange anymore. she had loads of work.... don't believe her if she denies it.

[unabelladonna]

60. thank you for speaking the truth...

some folks are very naive, but to ms. christie's credit she knew when to stop.

[S n o w b a l l]

70. This is my mom at 73....one of those old people.

She's never had a bit of work done and was also (and to a degree still is)a sun worshiper. Not many wrinkles for her age.

[orleans]

16. "don't look now"

one of my favorite movies evea!

[kwassa]

25. Sophia Loren looks great at 75.

[kimmerspixelated]

45. Yep, hubby likes her and Ann Margeret!

[dana_b]

55. he must have loved "Grumpier Old Men"

I think both of those women are drop dead gorgeous. They probably had some work done but it comes from the inside too.

[mnhtnbb]

27. It's called "good bones".

[RFKHumphreyObama]

30. Look at Nancy Pelosi and Barbara Boxer

You could say they same about them

[Lorien]

31. Um, no.

There's a reason the saying "politics is celebrity for un-photogenic people" exists.

[DFW]

32. Why not? My wife is 58 and she looks amazing, with no "work" done

Full disclosure--the pic is 8 months old, so she was only 57 here.
I don't know if all Europeans worship women over 40, but my wife
is European, and I worship her. Does that count?

[Wapsie B]

34. Who's the babe with Richard Dreyfuss?

Seriously, your wife looks wonderful. I'd never guess anything close to 58.

[DFW]

36. I wouldn't have either, but I have evidence

Besides the fact that we have been together for 36 years (28 of them married), I still have this pic from 1981,
in which I look considerably younger, and she looks at least as wonderful:


I think if she ever gets rid of that painting Dorian Gray gave her, there will be trouble.

[kimmerspixelated]

46. Jerry Garcia, where have you been??

HAHA

[DFW]

47. Reports of my death were so convincing..........

I figured it was a good time to take a vacation............

(Actually my guitar hero is Leo Kottke, not Garcia, but dem's da breaks...)

[MiddleFingerMom]

56. A very attractive couple, no matter the age.

.
You DO look like Richard Dreyfuss and I think you may have married
Elizabeth Kucinich's mom!!!
.

[DFW]

63. Well, I didn't exactly marry Elizabeth Kucinich's mom, but...

I did marry this young woman's mom:

And luckily she got a tiny share of my genes and a BIG share of my wife's genes.

[Aristus]

38. Wow!

:wow:

She looks fantastic!

I've always said, the mature ladies have got it going ON!

[tango-tee]

49. Your wife looks wonderful!

And you're not too bad yourself, DFW... You're such a handsome couple. Was that picture taken at the Nordsee, BTW?

[DFW]

53. Nowhere near the Nordsee, as a matter of fact

Long Nook Beach on the outer part of Cape Cod, Massachusetts (Truro). We find it to be one of North America's most beautiful.

I still look better when she makes me a turban...........

[Darth_Kitten]

52. She's amazing!!

And your attitude is great, too. So, yes, that does count. :)

[old mark]

33. She looks great now that she's old because

she looked great when she was young.


mark

[Love Bug]

35. If she's had work done, this is the way to do it

She looks natural and not stretched with a perpetual look of surprise. It helps when you're beautiful to start with.

[redqueen]

39. It's really sad how superficial people are.

Not everyone can just 'age naturally' and look that good, but stuff like this sure keeps the plastic surgeons rolling in dough, so :woohoo:

[Taverner]

41. I think its plastic surgery too

But unlike some folks:



She had it done tactically rather than constantly

[tango-tee]

67. OMG, what a hatchet job.

That poor woman. I suppose little can be done to undo what has been perpetrated on that face?

[Taverner]

40. Tactical cosmetic surgery, rather than overkill

She's had work done, but only a small amount (chin tuck, eye tuck)

My guess is she keeps herself in good shape

[WinkyDink]

42. I met her! Stage-door after a play in London. She is TINY!

[MarshalltheIrish]

48. Same with Jane Seymour

Some women (Raquel Welch and Ann Margaret also come to mind here) are just eternally gorgeous. I can't explain it, it's just timeless.

[Darth_Kitten]

51. Olivia de Havilland...........93 and amazing....

You work it, girl.

[dana_b]

54. wow!

she looks lovely. The coat is great too!

[Darth_Kitten]

58. Dior.....

Or so I've read.

She is a lovely woman. Classic Hollywood. :)

[Paladin]

57. That Lower Lip Will Still Be Sexy When She's 100....... (n/t)

[unabelladonna]

59. she has always been insanely gorgeous...

BUT, i hate to clue you guys in....she did have some work. i remember seeing her very soon after she had it done. i was sooo disappointed but it's mellowed out....and unlike so many other beautiful actresses who feel they must look 25(jessica lange) she knew when to stop.

[SoxFan]

61. Pact with Satan

Same goes for Helen Mirren

[MiddleFingerMom]

64. If Helen Mirren had been my Mom...

.
...my username would probably be TheSonOfMrsOedipus.
.

[Orrex]

68. But then you'd have a hard time seeing the screen.

[Orrex]

65. Check in here if you misread the subject line.

[BootinUp]

69. Fell in love

with her in the movie "Heaven can Wait". Can't believe she is almost 70. Where has time gone.
