Do you think she's just choosy, or do you think it's a lack of offers?

Her strength seems to be romantic comedies, which are not as prevalent as they used to be. (Not that there’s a lot of demand for 58-year-old actresses in romantic comedy anyway.) It also doesn’t help that she now looks a little like Jack Nicholson when he played The Joker in Batman. Plastic surgery has damaged her career.

As someone pointed out, her bread and butter was romcoms, which aren't as big as they sued to be and tend to go to younger actresses (Julia Roberts seems to have the same issue)

Maybe she can play some classic Hollywood actress a la Judy.

Wasn't there something about a movie she did (In The Cut I think it was called) that had her play a racy role with nudity which turned off her critics and fans?

Women get bumped out of the romantic role by age 40 usually. I remember a newspaper article pushing the idea ot was amazing Rene Russi was playing a romantic role in Thomas Crown & Lethal Weapon (born 1954. Thomas Crown was 1999)
