Maybe she skipped some of the botox treatments that Ford received...

I thought Karen Allen was pretty darned cure for a 55 year old woman!

55? You're kidding?

Sorry, not very chivalric of moi  :? - but honestly, she really did look older than Harrison Ford, and he's got to be 65 (ish) hasn't he?
In some circles this is called "The Hollywood Effect", where audiences become so used to seeing 20-year old actresses opposite 50-year old leading men, it looks odd to them and the women look too old when they see an actor and an actress of the same age (listen to the audio commentary on the DVD for Emma Thompson's Sense And Sensibility for an illustration of this. Test audiences said that she looked like Hugh Grant's mother, even though they're almost exactly the same age...).

We treat them actors not too kindly, do we?  :'(

Then again, why should we? As long as they have fun doing what they do and earn a living they couldn't (and shouldn't) care less.

All limitations are self imposed.  Work hard and dream big.
