Her remarks came just before she was honored with the International Goya award at the Spanish Film Academy’s ceremony in Barcelona.

BS.

It’s more likely because of her age. Hollywood is leftist and she’s a lefty.

I am always amazed at how fading - or faded - celebrities seem to come out of nowhere to get attention when they have been long forgotten

All those appearances, all those roles down the crapper.

Joins a long list of repulsive, creepy, loud-mouthed, flamed out Hags.

As Martha would say:
It’s a good thing.

Susan Sarandon? I thought her career disappeared waaaay before Gaza was the hot topic among the lefties.

In the 1700s we had the Founders for political discussions.

Now we have TV, Hollywood and recording industry stars.

Can we trade?

I found impossible to be on television too.

It was a devastating experience. I felt gutted. I actually was gutted.

Gee, she’s only 79. The reason she’s not getting all the hottie roles has to be political, yeah that’s it.

What a shame. Because as we all know, there’s normally a big demand for unstable, 79-year-old actresses.
