I have a hard time believing...


Lynn Whitfield was 43 when she filmed this! I know folks were comparing her with Regina who was 25 on an earlier post. Ironically, at the time of this posting Regina is 44.
I think both women are talented and beautiful but Ms. Whitfield looked fab for her age in this film! I'm inspired.

Yeah she was 43 in 1996, she's the same age as my mom. My mom has always looked very youthful for her age as well, doesn't look 62 and neither does Lynn Whitfield. I wonder what her character will be like now in the equ

Can't we just say "she looks beautiful" (fab) instead of adding the qualifier "for her age"? She is. It just lessens the complement!😉

Not in an industry (and sadly a society) dominated by physical beauty. I'm still getting compliments for looking 15 years younger. And in my 40s I finally can smile and receive the compliment w grace and gratitude. I see your point but I'm still inspired.
