Some of your guys' definitions of "old" is a little different than mine, and I'm 22! Most of the women in this thread I would say are "approaching middle-age," not "old."
Still, I dig a few older British chicks.
Jenny Agutter's almost 50 and she looked gorgeous in last year's The Railway Children.
Helen Mirren is up there too. When I saw Teaching Mrs. Tingle in the theater with my friends, they were all drooling over Katie Holmes. I think I was the only one who thought Helen Mirren was way hotter.
Although I haven't seen Lesley-Anne Down in a while, I can't imagine her losing any of her radiance.
For "Hollywood" actresses, Diane Keaton still looks very sexy.

Ah, once again I must point out that Emmanuelle Beart is the babe to end all babes! Go watch La Belle Noiseuse and get with the program!

He thought on homeland, the big timber, the air thin and chill all the year long. Tulip poplars so big through the trunk they put you in mind of locomotives set on end. He thought of getting home and building him a cabin on Cold Mountain so high that not a soul but the nighthawks passing across the clouds in autumn could hear his sad cry. Of living a life so quiet he would not need ears. And if Ada would go with him, there might be the hope, so far off in the distance he did not even really see it, that in time his despair might be honed off to a point so fine and thin that it would be nearly the same as vanishing.

Funny Kristin Scott Thomas should be the first name on this thread: I watched the English Patient for the first time yesterday and thought exactly the same thing. The woman is gorgeous!

I forgot about Belinda Carlisle. Her Playboy pictorial proves that she's just as hot as ever.

As for the bad rap about the characters--hey, I've seen space operas that put their emphasis on human personalities and relationships. They're called "Star Trek" movies. Give me transparent underwater cities and vast hollow senatorial spheres any day. --Roger Ebert on The Phantom Menace
I stood next to Sharon Larence at a restaurant in Hollywood ry and she is very beautiful in person. A very down to earth beauty.

You know, I've seen Virginia Madsen in some recent episodes of "Fraiser" and "The Practice"...oh man, is she hot! To quote Bill Clinton the Conan O'Brien show: "Whoo wheeee!"
Rachel Ward, Catherine Denueve, and Susan Sarandon are still as gorgeous as they were twenty-five years ago, while Julianne Moore and Lolita Davidovich are stunning beauties. I'm twenty years old, and find some of the above women more attractive than some of the today's sex symbols!
And I'm shocked, SHOCKED, that nobody mentioned Jennifer Connelly. Isn't she near her mid-thirties?

Jennifer Connelly is definitely not in her mid-thirties! She's only 30 or 31! Besides, she's my babe. No one else can have her.
I've been trying to think of women who are forty and over. Some of the women mentioned, like Liz Hurley, don't fit into that category.
Forty is a good cut-off.
"You know, I've seen Virginia Madsen in some recent episodes of "Fraiser" and "The Practice"...oh man, is she hot!"
she was ALWAYS one of my favorites, and she STILL is!! i'll tell you one thing though...she was HOTTER than all hell in that stupid movie with bobcat goldthwaite(sp) about 12-13 years ago or so...it was the movie about a talking horse or something stupid like that...if you want to see super YUMMY!!!! ,check her out in that movie!
I've always been a fan of Hope Davis (and I'm shocked that she's 37), despite my former roommate's insistence that she looks like Hilary Clinton.
Borrowing one from the "News Babes" thread, Andrea Thompson is another 40+ beauty.
I always preferred Counselor Troi to Dr. Crusher, too. Marina Sirtis is now 41.
Edited: Damned if I didn't forget Jeri Ryan. I guess I'm going to have to start watching Boston Public now. [Edited last by David Lawson on October 01, 2001 at 11:28 PM]
