How old are you people who have seen it?


I've been hearing comments that this movie is for "old people". I guess that's because most of the actors are older, but still. Like, I'm 15 and I loved it. Partly because Jeremy Irons is my idol. So how old was everyone when they saw it?

I'ma 19 year old male and I absolutely loved it becasue of Annette's Acting and because it reminded me of All About Eve. The final scene is amazing one of the best I've seen.

I intend to watch it tonight on Direct tv. If you are interested in what people think of it click on the ratings as if you were voting to rate it. You will see the breakdown by sex and age bracket and between US vs outside the US.

Then hit the back up button without voting unless you have seen it and want to vote.

I only watched it because Jeremy Irons was my second British crush (age 6 ). I am 17 on Saturday, wooh.

I'm 19 and I think it was awesome! One of the best movies of 2004. Anette Bening deserved that Oscar...

I'm 17 and I thought it was amazing. One of the best film endings ever!

I'm 24, and every year I purchase the 5 Best Actress Oscar movies, regardless of what they are or who wins; it's simply a collection I've amassed (I have all of them since 1980 except "Reds," and I started with 1980 because that's the year I was born).

ANYWAY ... I think Annette should have gotten the 2004 Best Actress Oscar for "Being Julia." I was absolutely crushed that she lost it to Hilary Swank. Annette, Imelda and Kate probably deserved the award a tad more than Hilary did, but ... it goes like it goes.

Benning's performance was excellent, far better then the one she gave in American Beauty.
Hillary Swank's performance was easily the worst out of all actresses nominated for this cathegory.
I am 25 and I feel that the movie can be enjoyed by both young and old.

15, Great film, specially Annete Benning, the dresser woman, the costumes and the script!

Yes, I've just finished watching it. I'm only 16 and I thought it was fabulous. I too, adore Jeremy Irons, but the appeal of the movie went far beyond him. The performances were just perfect. Although now I will have to ponder Annette's loss at the Oscar's- the nomination at least was well deserved, and I do say I hope to see much more of Tom Sturridge, the boy who played Roger. I think he'll blossom into a fine actor.
