Jurassic Park According to Jeff Goldblum, Laura Dern and Sam Neill | Vanity Fair

They've aged very gracefully. The original Jurassic Park is one of my favourite movies of all time.

Aging gracefully does not involve cosmetic surgery or botox, but yeah SOME of them aged very gracefully.

The older I get approaching 30 I realize how irrelevant age really is. People age physically but they are still the same as they were when younger adults. People don't change much in terms of personality after age 25.

[@Eserr7856]

I agree that the core personality traits remain after 25, particularly because that's when the frontal cortex is fully developed, meaning less risky behavior and better judgment compared to adolescence..but I do believe that some people remain "young at heart" by their spontaneity, humor, charisma, and joy while other people do become "old" personality wise..grumpy, more serious, boring..this is my belief based on observations I've made in my life.
