I mean, to be fair, I’m 10 years older than Connery in that picture, and he still looks older than me. Dude was born old.
And the other dude has a baby face, but looking closely I can see that he’s older.
Half the difference here is the fact that modern actors have a better skincare routine. Connery probably smoked, too.
The other dude is pretty damn good in The Artful Dodger, by the way. He’s playing close to his actual age (deported to Australia, became a skilled ship’s surgeon but still uneducated) but still looks like we imagine the little cutpurse, it’s a winning combination.

Wait, why? The war was over when he was a teen. He enjoyed decades of progressive social reform
Britain still felt the effects of rationing for years and years after the end of WWII
Between bombings, rationing, and the general pollution of the UK, it’s a wonder he lived as long as he did.
Sean Connery has never had a great time as an Englishman, given he is a Scotsman.

Me, a classical student of principia statisticalia and an avid disciple of reasoning: ‘hmm, yes the UK has at least 2 (two) actors, one could infer’
What else are we supposed to get from this? I might be little tired.
I think what they mean is the picture is implying it’s due to generational changes when you could find a younger looking 34 year old then and an older looking 34 year old now. It’s a sample size of one. By definition that’s argument from anecdote, there’s no way you can infer generalities from that without being hasty.
Those mf start smocking at 12, by 35 they look 50 already.
