There ain't no role for over-forty bimboes in it. Sure there is. I mean, who do you think was buying that soap?

I find it offensive that in Hollywood a 68-year-old movie star is paired with a 30-year-old, or someone even younger.Yeah right!

The documentary is seen as a thinly veiled attack on moguls such as Harvey Weinstein - the portly co-owner of Miramax - who control the film industry and the careers of Hollywood actresses. Two observations:
1) Harvey is described as portly.
2) The only person mentioned as 'controlling the film industry' just happens to be jewish. Hmmmmm...

"They've told me, 'It's just a bunch of chicks sitting around bitching about us'." Well, that's basically it, isn't it?

There are plenty of professional athletes who would still like to make their living as athletes even when they are past 40. Why don't more teams keep these guys on the roster?Not a good analogy. Sports doesn't have anything to do with looks. If a woman loses her acting ability after 40, she should get out of the business.

I bet you have the pure Shea Butter at your place too. I use the stuff that is processed and it still works wonderfully.
Yeah, we agree with the foreskin assessment. To top it off my son was getting IVs in his forehead and we just didn't want to add anything else to his hard beginnings.
I've thought about cosmetic surgery, but more so on the facial stuff. It is hard to watch those creases come in on the eyes. As for implants, I'll be happy to hand some of mine over--got way too much naturally, well not according to hubby, but I've got to lug 'em around--LOL.

There comes a point when some of the female artist simply aren't considered peaches anymore. You can't blame the film industry for having the good sense to realize that a firm young woman will sell better to young audiences than some embarrassing moth eaten hag with breast that look like a pair of silk socks with an orange (maybe a lime in Meg's case) in each one.

Teri Garr was 13 when she first started daning in Elvis and Beach Party movies.
This is her correct age.

I just got back from "Something's got to give". I don't care how old she is, Diane Keaton is a babe.

However, one can get too much surgery and look like Joan Rivers. Oh, she looks terrifying, doesn't she? Like the taxidermist got hold of her... when she talks, nothing between her upper lip and her hairline moves.

Actually, there is a rational explanation for the problem: the men controlling the hiring are in arrested development and haven't the ability to appreciate women over forty because these men have remained teenaged boys in their libido area rather than grow up and appreciate a woman companion instead of a p!ece of tail ... put another way, they are stuck still thinking sex is far and away the most important thing in life.

Okay I confess... I read fine tabloid newspapers. Some of these moviesars weren't looking pretty AND for change they didn't have all women. Burt Reynolds is looking a little... lumpy.

In the film, Daryl Hannah, 43, says that the root of the problem lies "with the guys who run the studios".Mary Pickford helped bankroll United Artists instead of starring in a documentary highlighting her victim status.

Yes Teri was in that episode but not James Coburn. Man I used to have a serious crush on Teri when I was younger.
