You know why? They had different beauty routines dude. I can agree people's faces are different from then. But I honestly think it's because people are more mixed now. People started having sex with other races and white people didn't just have white babies anymore. But they wore corsets, even in the 30's. That was a thing that was still very relevant. It just wasn't as extreme as the standards in the 1800's and back. Bras were shaped different and didn't have padding for awhile so that's why most boobs were small or pointy. They had very bizzare exercise routines for women because they had to stay looking feminine. And they also had bizzare makeup and hair routines as well. Beauty and beauty routines just aren't the same anymore.
I think also that evolution is continuously making each new generation structured bone and flesh shaped slightly different from the generation before it. Look at people's facial bone structure, and women's shoulder bone structure in the 1930s compared to today, some of it is purely due to bone structure. That combined with all the other stuff I was saying in my comment before this one.
Evolution doesn't work that quickly, and interracial relationship rates (while high) are not SO high that everyone or even a majority are mixed.
I put the changes down to lifestyle and surgery, for the most part. Both men and women are taller now on average than they were then, and fashion and beauty trends are different. Surgery is more common in both of the only-two genders, men work out harder while women have more diet fads, womens' hairstyles have got longer and men wear more facial hair.
I know that evolution is slow, but every generation has had those very little changes. There are websites that have claimed proof that women's average breast sizes have gotten a little bigger over the past 60-70 years. Of course, not all websites which claim proof automatically means that there's really been proof. I still think that there may have been tiny evolutionary changes which has made facial structures just that little bit different from a few generations ago. But, that is pretty minimal for the most part over only 50-100 years. You are right about alot of the differences in facial structures are probably more to do with the gradual process of mixed babies over the past 40 years. I'm saying 40 years because before the 1970s, mixed couples were still rare.
That's true about surgury and procedures today which so many celebrities today get, which is of course another reason looks today are different. You didn't have celebrities getting all these facelifts and botox injections in the old days.
You can't judge such things without taking into account who is being depicted: obviously photographers and filmmakers are going to focus on people who fit the current stereotype of what is attractive
How do you know it's a dude who posted this, SIYB? You are right about what you were saying about more mixed race babies being born over time and that making a difference. I also agree with different exercise routines today. Today they're more intense and specifically developed for shaping various body parts, which I'm sure helps explain better body definition today. That and more specified types of diets now. The faces are different I think between different makeup and like I said in my post about different more assertive facial expressions in women today, since women are more assertive than 50 to 100 years ago. I don't think the clothes, like corsets, bras, etc. have much to do with the changes I was talking about, because I was talking about changes in body structure with the body parts that were showing then verses body parts showing now, such as legs, shoulders, etc. That's why I was talking about matching 30s swimsuit pictures to today swimsuit pictures. Womens' shoulders and legs were showing then and showing now in my comparison pictures.
The beauty routines were totally different! Women in the 1930s would shave off their eyebrows or pluck them extremely thin and draw them in in a pencil thin, half moon shape. That alone would have had a huge impact on the appearance of the face.

Better nutrition today may have a part to play as well.
I think also that evolution is continuously making each new generation structured bone and flesh shaped slightly different from the generation before it.
