The wife AVA saying that's she's old and not as pretty anymore...


Love the movie, it's an amazing film, but I just found that part where the wife saying she's older and not as attractive anymore funny. She looked exactly the same throughout the whole movie, lol. I don't think they even attempted to make her look slightly older

Nicky (the son) didn't age any either. He stayed about 5 through the whole film, but it was set over a period of around 10-15 years. Funny what we notice, and the simple things that producers do miss out

Yeah, the hundreds of people who worked on this film and made it a reality were unable to spot that Yuri's wife and son were immortal. I think if you watched it again and more closely you'd realise that their ages and appearances are A-OK. THe flow of time can be very deceptive in a film.

it showed how shallow she was. Very sad.

Well her whole point was that she had never been sucessful at anything other than being pretty, and now she was slowly failing even at that. I don't think that specific realization makes someone "shallow."
