I've been meaning to comment on this since G.C. first mentioned it, but forgot to ... until now. (Thanks, Kevy).
Try and remember what I look like. Me,
I'm 45 years old. 5 years older than Ennis at his oldest in the movie. Granted, I'm not a weathered ranch hand ... and granted, I've obviously drunk from the fountain of youth. But 40 years old is not terribly old, and the make-up in the movie was perfectly in keeping with a weathered man at 40 years old. Crows feet around the eyes, a few wrinkles lining the face, a little gnarlyness in the hands. He's 40, not 80.
But good on you, Kevy, for going postal on the movie morons.
