【原文】
“Margaret, your visa application is denied. You've been deported.”
“Deported？”
45-year-old Sandra Bullock plays a woman desperate to get married and romantic commonly their proposal. But Showbiz Tonight can tell you her, body of work go through way beyond destiny.
“Hello?”
“Oh. My god.”
“You are naked.”
“Where you were?”
Andrew couldn’t forget Halle Belly’s sexy turn as a band girl when dying in another day.
“And it isnt you
“ It is, isn’t?
It sure is. There are women over 40 in Hollywood and they really know how the pack punch.
“They say that 40 is a new 30. I don’t know. May be 40 is a new 20. Today women in Hollywood, when you reach 40, you become the woman that you are. And I think that shows in their work.”
It sure does. Now Showbiz Tonight and More Magazine are teaming up to review that top Hollywood women in film who make over 40 look absolutely fabulous no matter what part they are playing for the camera.
Say hello to 60-year-old Meryl Streep who plays the pompous fashion editor Miranda Priestly in The Devil Wears Prada.
“You have no style or something of fashion.”
“Think that depends on what you are…”
“You know that wasn’t a question.”
And there is no question Streep could easily pass for the real Julia Child in the movie Julie and Julia.
“I’m Julia Child. More not for tea.”
Streep has been so good that actress tell Showbiz Tonight, she thinks it is Streep’s best work yet.
“I thought she was absolutely so flooded with life and light and just like I choose awesome.”
And so do we. But she is not alone. Last year some of applauds for a 51-year-old Michelle Pfeiffer, everybody’s favorite cat woman.
“It’s ok, I have to go home and be like a cat.”
I mean she makes balck fanda looks great. And Pfeiffer looks great in real life too.
“She works at it. And she said she worked hard at the gemage. She does almost every single day.”
Working hard is just another day in the life of our next fabulous over 40 star Cate Blanchett. The Oscar greeting actress has even played a man. She channeled singer Bob Dylan in the 2007 movie, I’m Not There.
“Look here who do I think. I’m not the president. This is a story tell us…”
And Cate has proven time and time again that she is just more than a pretty face. Remember when she started in Elizabeth that seen here. She shaped her eyebrows and shaped her hair back.
“I took them a lont way inside. I have a hurrican …”
These starring women in films set the bar high and make over 40 look absolutely fabulous, giving women everywhere a reason to celebrate.
