+140 It's kinda weird when women/men in movies are characterised to being around 15 - 18 year old, but clearly still look like they are around 22 - 26. Amirite?

there are two types of love stories: 1) shown in movies between good looking people. 2) true love which is not based on looks or any other quality.

It's because of labour laws. And underage actor can only work for a certain number of hrs/day and 4 of those need to be dedicated to school. An adult actor can work all day if needed, so it's easier and more cost efficient for studios to hire 20 something yr old actors to play teenagers.
