Actually the film was just fine. Some close ups were shot through gauze, smoke or gel on the lens to make them softer.

It may be that people in general made more of an effort to be combed and dressed, and actresses in particular never went anywhere with a pin out of place, unlike the current generation who are much more lax about hair, makeup and occasionally, hygiene.

The film reel itself was fine, but see above. Also there's a distinct difference in shooting on film vs. shooting digitally, which most studios do these days.

And yes, I'm aware of the old Vaseline on the lens trick, but that's not what I'm referring to exactly. Those are specific shots that were used for specific reasons (e.g. emotional scenes, love scenes). I'm talking about the look of old movies compared to the HD movie making process we have now.

Yeah, I don't think you would have opened up a magazine back then and seen photos of an actress walking down the street in a tracksuit and baseball cap (or an actor, for that matter). I don't idealize that too much, though, because being glamorous all the time is exhausting and I don't expect anyone to keep it up without a day off now and then.

But... that's because old Hollywood rigidly controlled its stars lives/ publicity, and wouldn't let 'normal' 'everyday' photos of its stars to be published. Whereas nowadays celebrities' lives aren't as controlled by studios AND consumers and creators of celebrity gossip have an appetite for seeing celebrities off guard - think of all the photo sets of movie stars just getting out of the gym, walking the dog, going shopping, getting a coffee etc that you will commonly see in gossip mags now. It's not because they were inherently less scruffy than people today.
