I have seen several interviews etc with Mr. Ruffalo. In my opinion, which is not in any way educated, I see subtle imperfections in his face and have seen them from early on. I would not have known they were from an AN however.
Frankly, I like it. That is not to say I am glad his face isn't perfect, it's just that I am sick and tired of leading men for the last twenty years looking like Katie Curic. Matt Damon looks like a woman, Mark Ruffalo looks like a man. In my world, men look like men and women look like women.
Other notable leading men who did not have perfect faces include Humphrey Bogart, Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood, Burt Lancaster Robert Mitchum. Think of it this way, who was a better Bond, Sean Connery or Roger Moore? Does anyone believe Roger Moore could have kicked the crap out of Robert Shaw had he been cast in From Russia with Love?
I am the same with women too. Jenny Agutter is exponentially more interesting to me than whoever is the latest Hollywood pixie that is supposed to be so alluring with her anorexic body and perfect nose. I'll take Lauren Hutton any day over what they push as beauty these days.
So, Mark Ruffalo's face isn't perfect. Neither are the faces of many people I admire. He's got class and he forges onward in his vocation to support his family despite having razor blades and pointy tools playing a tune on his facial nerve for eight or so hours.
