I guess there are some women who like older men, but it's a smaller group.

Women have been brought up to be passive, accepting, not come forward and play a major role in life. And with age, there's a tendency to revert to that - to pull back, recede. I don't think it's advisable or admirable.

I have nothing against younger women and older men on screen. What is sad is that so many women over 40 who have so much to give aren't being considered to play opposite men their own age or 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.

There are older men with younger women but you don't see a lot of older women with younger men. There are some women who have been able to do it but not often.

Sometimes you see women that don't realize that age is changing your style, and they don't change.

Older women are best, because they always think they may be doing it for the last time.

I'm really a strong advocate of ageing because the messages that the media and advertising give to women infuriate me: ie that it's a bad thing to get old.
