I have to admit that I continue to be amazed by the awesomeness of Monica Bellucci, and I wonder if she's just an anamoly or is it more common that I realize that "older" actresses look that good. I undertand that older is a relative term, but in an industry focused on youth, it's not easy for older actresses in general. Who would you all consider as the best looking older actresses?

iamiam

I've always had a thing for Isabelle Adjani.

Julianne Moore is pretty hot.

Patman

Is there an age cut-off for what's considered "older"?

fumanstan

Petula Clark.

NoirFan

Susan Sarandon looks fantastic for 60-something.

Zen Peckinpah

Diane Lane and Marisa Tomei.

That is all.

25. That's when you stop getting the "hot chick" roles and start getting the "older sister" roles.

At 30, you start getting the "mother" roles.

At 40, you start getting the "grandma" roles.

CreatureX

Brooke Shields is still smoking hot!

hasslein

Melinda Clarke, Charlotte Ross, Jeri Ryan

She's not an actress, but Mary Hart looks good!

Brian Shannon

Diane Lane
Sela Ward
Anne Archer
Helen Mirren
Jane Seymour
Suzanne Somers
Kim Basinger

Yup and I would add Diane Keaton to the list, maybe it is the makeup commercials she is in but she has really looked good recently.

I absolutely adore Emmanuelle Devos since first seeing her in Read My Lips (2001) and Esther Kahn (2000)



She's 44.

Devos was also great in 'Kings & Queen' and an all too brief role in 'A Christmas Tale'

Shannon Nutt

What's the definition of "older"? Over 50?

If so, I've got a crush on Dana Delany.

RichC2

I think Shohreh Aghdashloo looks fantastic for a 50 something. (56 now, but it is more in reference to House of Sand and Fog period which was 5 years ago).

Jericho

I'd leave it up you, but if I'm forced to make a hard cut-off, let's say 40. That's old for Hollywood years

RichC2

40? Well hell, I think Jennifer Aniston is still cute and shes 40 in 3 months.

Halle Berry (42)
Nicole Kidman (41)
Naomi Watts (40)
Laura Harring (44)
Monica Bellucci (already mentioned, 44)
Vanessa Williams (45)
Kelly Hu (40)
Tia Carrere (41)

Michael Corvin

By the same token, Brooke Burke has done a few bit parts but definitely smokin' for a mother of three nearing 40.

Daytripper

Twenty posts and not one mention for Catherine the great? Best looking older woman. Just beautiful. Pictured here with her daughter.

Daytripper

Also, just turned 45. And she looked 30 years old in "Hamlet 2" IMO.




Still smokin hot is.....

inri222

Giles

they are both acting together in the 'A Christmas Tale'

Cartload

Yeah, Helen Mirren is holding up nicely for 63.
