The fact that Andie MacDowell, who turns 62 today is stillĀ relevant in Hollywood, is a big deal. It's sad that the shelf-life ofĀ female actorsĀ is lesser when compared toĀ their male counterparts. Of course, the glass ceiling is slowly breaking (thanks to actresses like Andie), but it is still going to take some more time for the unfortunate divide to vanish. It's not that Andie is active on the screen for the sake of it as we have seen herĀ in toothsome, age-appropriate roles off late. In fact, ever since she starred inĀ Sex, Lies, and Videotape, life changed for Andie.
