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
Women's body structures have changed
