fine, because I guess I have to be the one to say it
the adults in Encanto do look their age! I've seen so many posts and comments about how young they look, going as far to say they look to be in their thirties.
Except... they have children in their twenties, and they certainly look older than them. You can tell they're the parents, and Isabela and Dolores are the kids, while still looking like adults themselves.
I'm sure a lot of it has to do with them being attractive, but fifty can be attractive! Fifty isn't as old as you might think! But just because they're hot, doesn't mean they had to have stopped aging at thirty.
All five of the adults have gray hair. Pepa's is the hardest to see because of her light hair, but it's there. None of them are entirely gray yet, but have perfectly natural graying patterns for middle age. Julieta and Bruno have more of a salt-and-peppered look, while Felix has stripe down the middle, and Agustin around the temples, and throughout.
They have wrinkles!! They're not as prominent as Alma's (a woman in her 70s), but look closely and you can see them. Julieta and Felix have crows feet by their eyes, Agustin has wrinkles on his forehead when he smiles, while Pepa and Bruno have smile lines. The attention to detail in this movie is actually wild.
All of these things are good and natural, and I'm tired of people saying they look too young, when they don't!
They look their ages, and that's okay! Fifty doesn't mean you have a foot in the grave, it just means you're middle aged, and that's nothing to be ashamed of.
I think media has a way of showing that fifty is "old" (for example, The Golden Girls were in their 50s, believe it or not), but these characters are still so full of life, and yes - they are attractive, but being attractive and being middle aged are not mutually exclusive.
