• Delete. It might be a reasonable cross-categorization if the list reported the ages at which the people were nominated or won, but it's based on their current age. Longevity and film-making are unrelated topics, and this is clearly a non-encyclopedic cross-categorization. I'm sure a lot of work went into this, but it's not notable and probably original research. pburka (talk) 17:32, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete per nom. Topic also seems to fail LISTN as the only sources are 'top 10' listicles.
