She was playing sort of a villain, wasn't she? I think that had something to do with it.
Actually, she looked pretty good throughout the movie despite her villainy, but there were a couple of profile shots in which the skin on the side of her face looked flaccid and not at all attractive.

I think she's very pretty. I'd hit it.
I didn't say she is ugly or unattractive - just that the years are showing. Rent Golden Compass, and see. IIR, the shot that took me by surprise was an interior shot at her residence at the magisterium. I immediately thought that if she had seen the rushes of the day's shooting, she should have asked to have that scene re-shot.

Actually, I'd agree with turbo.

She's had quite a bit of plastic surgery that, while it hasn't turned out bad, has stripped a little personality out of her face. I think it must be tough for a person to pick out the proper "improvement" to their current appearances. There's always a risk of finding out that a key slight imperfection was what created that unique personality evident in a person's pictures.

Plastic surgery and all, I have to give a nod to Cher. I think she did this concert back in 1999, so she would have been about 53.

Heh, that's really putting it out there at 53 or so. I believe she did that concert for a USO or similar [military] show, I think on a ship, for a bunch of guys who had been away for a long time. :smile:

There has been a Biography Channel show about her running lately. Really it has been amazing how she has continually reinvented herself. The beat went on a long time ago! And she is a good actress.

I give her much credit for courage, just not for fashion :)

I agree. She's got that style of good looks based on 'girlishness', for lack of
a better term, and when it goes its noticeable. Other looks - the Sophia Loren type - can ride the wave much longer.

And you know what maked men more attractive in their 50s is not only their appreance! They get wiser, more reliable, rich as they grow older.

I think men are most attractive in their late 90s to early 100s. Especially if they are extremely wealthy. o:)

I think women married to terminally ill men in their 90s to early 100s are attractive.

There was a larger-than-normal Playboy centerfold who fit that definition. Hmm. Not an actress though, in the normal scheme of things.

It is a better world that we appreciate a lifetime of beauty, and not just the flush of youth.

Well, that used to be only true for men because the life style of the past made women very old by the time they got 40 but right now things are quite different and as you see more and more women and actresses get hotter as they grow old.:Biggrin:
And you know what maked men more attractive in their 50s is not only their appreance! They get wiser, more reliable, rich as they grow older. I mean women don't have to put up with so many new madnesses , troubles, changes and whatever like that...:-p
Agreed!

My mom always say hope we find only 1 who's the rightest 1. She means it really doesn't matter how many people you meet and are attracted to you, let's be hopeful 1 f them would be the right person for you...o:)
Lol, Sorry I missed this reply earlier I must've skipped over it! But thank you :-p I'm hopeful too, actually I'm kinda hoping that I'm with the right one ATM but alas I'm only 21 so still somewhat skeptical haha

Lucy Liu is pretty cute, though a bit young-ish at only 42.

Girls, you don't have to wait for a 90 year-old man. There's an 82 year old man that claims not to have had any food or water for decades. Take him in and don't give him any food or water. He'll be an ex-mystic soon.

Gorgeous model, but selling gym equipment with Chuck Norris does not make her an actress.

I just noticed this is about actors too.

Adrian Paul, he's 50. This picture is from last year's movie.

Not so much now, but I could never see Christie Brinkley as "hot". She looked too much like my sister. :smile:

Yeah, by the time I was in my late teens, my friends all wanted to date my sister. My best friend did, so I dated his sister; and I know that things worked out better for me than for him! :smile:

It can be a hassle. I used to have to deal with sometimes not-so-subtle self-invites from guys who wanted to crash family get-togethers. Attractive sisters and female cousins can be inconvenient that way. Something about the mix of Irish, French, and American Indian genetics...

Add Famke Janssen to the list.
Jane Seymour is over 50 and still looks pretty good.
