Hollywood complains "not enough good writing going on"...?!?

Diane Keaton was quoted the other day stating that no good roles were being written for women her age - accomplished actresses who have nothing to prove anymore... Fact is, she is not just an actress but a sometimes director and producer - she has it in her power to change that... somewhat... Her exact words on the subject were: "It requires somebody who's a good writer who wants to write about that subject. Who is gonna do that? George Lucas? I don't think so. I'd have to be an alien, a sexy, older alien."
Well, Diane, maybe you should give some writers a chance to do it too - eh?
As the saying goes - "let ME help YOU" - and vice-versa! *LOL*



Hmm... a bit of Anne Rice in Diane here, 
is it not the case? 
Weird!

Diane Keaton says love is much easier in the movies
November 27, 2005

NEW YORK (AP) - Diane Keaton dated many of her leading men off screen, but she says she prefers to fall in love on screen.

"You know where it's going, and you can just enjoy it for what it is," Keaton tells Time magazine. "Real life is complicated. Onscreen you know what the lines are. Everybody's doing what they're supposed to do. He's not gonna surprise you."

The 59-year-old actress credits her listening skills in making relationships with Woody Allen, Al Pacino and Warren Beatty work.

"I was a good listener. But then that wears off. They get bored," she says.

Keaton plays a mother in the upcoming The Family Stone, about a Manhattan career woman (Sarah Jessica Parker) who gets a cold reception from her fiance's family.

She's not surprised by the lack of sexy roles for women over 50 despite the success of Something's Gotta Give, for which she was nominated for an Oscar.

"It requires somebody who's a good writer who wants to write about that subject," she says. "Who is gonna do that? George Lucas? I don't think so. I'd have to be an alien, a sexy, older alien."
