The cool thing is that, unlike film, the theatre roles for women get better and better as you get older.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The roles for women in theatre are much better than they are in film.
I think the roles in television are better for women right now. At this point, I don't want to continue doing the same things I've been doing in film because it's very limited.
Maybe I'm a better actor when I know there's going to be an older woman involved.
It is not easy to grow old in this business, when you are a woman above all, in the cinema.
People pay to see movies with women looking beautiful, but I think there will be a place for me to play women looking my own age.
Some of the best roles are for women in these independent, smaller movies.
There aren't many roles that are interesting if you're a 40-year-old woman, unless you're Julia Roberts or Cate Blanchett.
What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older.
When you're a woman in your 40s, it's not the best time to do films, because there really aren't that many roles. Then you reach 50 and there are more roles again. Mother parts.
Women have to take more control of their careers. They can't just wait to be cast in a film.
