Maggie’s Typecast
As actors age, the number of roles offered to them tends to decrease. Because Hollywood is not very kind to older actors, even the most accomplished and successful ones have to resort to accepting jobs they wouldn’t have when they were younger.
Maggie Smith is no exception. However, while the type of role she is asked to play tends to be bitter old women, she’s come to terms with it. In fact, with a smile like that, it seems she’s quite okay with it.
