Fighting the ageing process just doesn't work. I think that actresses, ultimately, are responsible for the faces we give to women.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The fact of the matter is that we're all aging, and there's this stigma that older actresses don't work as much as younger actresses, and I don't think that's true anymore.
I was raised by an actress, and I watched all those women turn 60 and ask, Shouldn't get face work? My mother and Anne Bancroft said, We're not going to fall into that.
I got old the way that women who aren't actresses grow old.
I know plenty of actresses in their early thirties who look amazing, although there's that old saying: 'Ladies get older, men get more distinguished.'
There are some older women out there who are just knockouts, real beauties, and they're not getting the roles they should.
There are fewer and fewer new roles for actresses as they get older. And that's not right.
In Hollywood, no one is happy with who they are. When they're young, they want to look older. When they're older, they're getting botox shot in their face to look younger.
There is this thing in America where actresses reach 40 and go mad. The film industry wants all these young people.
There's a terrible truth for many women in the picture business: Aging typically takes its toll and means fewer and less desirable roles.
Certain type of actresses get younger instead of older. I always say, 'Only ingenues age.'
