Casting

For my screenwriting class, to help us develop our characters, our teacher told us to cast the lead so we have a visual to reference. My character is a 75 year old woman...you have no idea how hard it is to find actresses that age who do not look like aliens due to one face lift too many, but I found a couple classy ladies here :)











I'm really feeling Shirley Jones, her older movies are fantastic, but she hasn't done anything too serious lately, just a light hearted tv show here or there. Vanessa Redgrave is great too, I love the movies and tv shows she has been in recently. So now, Gale, my character, has a name and a face to put it to...or at least, at the moment, two ;)
