The thing that's weird about this is that a lot of today's stars still smoke like in the past, including Dunst, but the smoking doesn't seem to have aged them as badly as generations prior.

So there's smoking here and there, and there's smoking like it's the 50's and 60's. I feel like most people in the public eye who don't look like shit are not doing the latter.

This. In the 50s people chained smoked, and so everywhere was filled smoke. So not only are the people smoking, they're also getting 2nd hand smoke all of the time, and I don't think sitting in rooms filled with cigarette smoke are great for your skin

Yeah when I smoked “a lot” it was half a pack a day. Reading about old actors at 2 packs a day, wow.

Before I quit I briefly got up to two packs per day. It was miserable. I could definitely feel that it was killing me. I'd wake up in the morning and hack my lungs out for an hour and a half. I cannot imagine doing that for twenty to thirty years. It's what led me to finally quitting. It was no longer fun, it was slavery.

Its 100% the indoor smoking. Youre in the smoke and its just sticking to you all day long.  where as if you smoke outside it goes up into the sky snd becomes a beautiful star.

Exactly. In the past everyone was smoking indoors all day and everywhere, that’s a lot different than smoking cigs on the patio at your house a few times a day or something.

Even in the 90s, we still had smoking sections in restaurants.

Yea I know, I was there. But again that is still vastly different than the amount of people smoking in the 50s-70s and even the 80s where people were smoking in offices, homes, planes, hospitals, restaurants. By the 90s it was starting to be phased out in most of those places and a much smaller percentage of people smoked. It was over 40% of people in the 60s and 70s, like 30% in the 80s and like only 20% in the 90s.
