By Jarren Stuartax


They say that Hollywood stars find fewer and fewer parts as they get older…that Hollywood caters only to the teen market…that actresses (actors, too, but especially actresses) are subjected to horrible ageism and no longer regarded as youthful, no longer regarded as sexy, no longer regarded as “bankable.” If they work at all, they get relegated to bit parts, character roles, and cameos.

And yet, there are magnificent exceptions. There are stars who are still sexy, sometimes even sexier, as they age. Blythe Danner, Cicely Tyson, Diane Keaton, Helen Mirren-who’s going to argue that these stars aren’t still sexy? And what’s really cool is that they appeal to fans of all generations. How many young moviegoers know Blythe Danner best from her panty shot in Meet the Parents? (Mom and Dad have to tell them, “That’s Gwyneth Paltrow’s mother.”)
