I read the Lenny piece, and enjoyed it.
And I know none of us will be surprised by this but the line about her being 44 and therefore regulated to “mom” or periphery roles makes me rage-y, because that is d*mn well not true of 44 year old male actors.

I also read this piece, and it was entertaining.
I only discovered the Lenny website this week, and I think it’s pretty great.
Bewitched
I thought it was a little ironic since I remember when Amanda Peet was the “it” girl and Alicia V. was probably in diapers. A.P. sort of mentions it in passing, but I think you have to embrace the fact that no one good thing lasts forever. You have to move on to the next good thing. I wouldn’t spend as much time mourning or obsessing as she did-she’s obviously quite talented so why not write her next movie or play or find a kick a** older female role to play? Isn’t Julia Roberts older than Amanda???
