It is not easy to grow old in this business, when you are a woman above all, in the cinema.

It's been hard in entertainment as a 45-year-old woman to find jobs. They get fewer and far between if you're older, unless you're one of the few lucky ones who work constantly, like Meryl Streep.

The cool thing is that, unlike film, the theatre roles for women get better and better as you get older.

Maybe I'm a better actor when I know there's going to be an older woman involved.

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.

That's why I love theatre, because things happen in the moment. I think you work without being conscious that you're working.

I guess I work well with others I handle younger actors well.

Since first starting my career, I've grown accustomed to working with actors older than me. I'm always the youngest.

It's completely different to work with a woman that is my age, maybe younger.

There's a terrible truth for many women in the picture business: Aging typically takes its toll and means fewer and less desirable roles.
