Maybe it's just a really bad picture, but with her acting career, she should have enough money to at least see a dermatologist once in a while! I mean, that much damage in just a few years? Wow.

the second pic is a faraway photo and the lines in her face are most probably there just that you cant see them. But I do agree she hasnt aged very well.

Oh, I disagree! She looks good for a woman in her mid-60's. She just doesn't have that bland, plastic look of her peers because she hasn't gone the botox/plastic surgery/collagen route. Give her credit for being true to herself.

menopause & HRT and then years of being in the sun for movie shoots and she looks her age. SHE LOOKS HER AGE.

My gosh 70 is old, don't forget. (70 is not the new 50 and 50 is NOT the new 30. That is ridiculous.)

I think we are used to seeing 65-70 year old actresses air brushed in magazines ---then in movies with all the lighting and makeup they look better than they do in real life.

I applaud her for not messing with her face thru surgery, but perhaps a moisturizer would have helped along the way.

But, wait til you are 70 and see the wrinkles you get. For some reason it happens overnight, too.

Amen. Leave her alone.
