Jennifer, it's not sexism. Halle, it's not racism. It's ageism--you've both just gotten too old. It's about youth and beauty, not talent. There's younger and prettier waiting in the wings. Bye.

That's one great thing about annoying Hollywood actresses--they get old.

There are some exceptions to the rule, such as Meryl Streep. But then, Hollywood types can't ignore her training, getting a BA in Drama at Vassar College and an MFA from Yale University. Streep is one of the very few older actresses that are still flooded with offers for movie and stage play roles.
