Faye Dunaway


Happy Birthday to

Faye Dunaway

70 today


Faye is an interesting example of how women in Hollywood hit a certain age thenvirtaully disappear. In the 1960's and 70's she could do no wrong and was constantly appearing in critical and commercial successes. Then when she hit 40 in 1981 the parts just dried up, and it doesn't look like she'll ever recover from that slump.

This explains why TCM is airing "Bonnie and Clyde" and "Network" tonight. I'd love to see her get at least one more part that comes near to her amazing work in these.

That's hell of an evening's entertainment.

Just one swansong would be worth seeing, she definitely deserves it.

She was hot in the 60s, a beautiful and talented actress.

She made a mistake with the plastic surgery.

It's shocking what she's done - but that's indicative of the horrific youth-orientated culture of Hollywood.

She really made a huge mistake to have surgery. She would have aged beautifully if she didn't follow that silly superficial mainstream.

Youth- culture..fear of death or just peer-pressure? I really wonder what make people believe they will look better if they go plastic..they never look better. They just look fake and lose all their unique beauty to become very average.
