i'm totally gay but he is way hotter as an old man.
Granted I kind of slanted the case for that by picking one of the better current pictures. There are some that are not so great.
yeah, i know. but i think you could pick his most flattering teen photo & put it next to a mediocre contemporary photo of him and the effect would be the same.
The author photo for The Corrections was amazing; it made him look like a model for Jos. A. Bank or like the fifth partner of Sterling, Cooper, Draper, Pryce and Franzen.
