Age Has No Expiration When It Comes to Talent | Features | Roger Ebert
Briefly

Women over 50 are taking a stand against ageism in Hollywood, craving portrayals that showcase their intelligence and allure. This shift has been evident in recent films featuring actresses such as June Squibb and Nicole Kidman, who challenge traditional norms by breaking into action and complex roles well into their later years. Despite the entrenched practices of casting younger women opposite older men, this new wave of female talent proves that the industry must adapt to appreciate their contributions. High-profile speeches by icons like Demi Moore and Jennifer Coolidge underscore the value of self-worth regardless of age.
"...just know you will never be enough, but you can know the value of your worth if you put down the measuring stick."
"The obsession with youth and beauty is literally starting to get old. These women are changing the game."
