I dont really know why they dont use the fresh young talent that is starting out in this industry and give them a try !
It just seems so stupid that a guy or a girl who are obviously in their thirty's goes around acting and pretending to be 16/17 !
Its stupid and puts me off watching a film because it turns it into a joke !

I think its down to WHO you know not WHAT you know !

The makeup and hair consultants do a really good job making all their features look younger. Isn't it weird?
