Isn't Streisand To Old To Be Rogen's Mother?
the two could certainly pass for mother and son. but it would have made more
sense for her to be Rogen's grandmother.
Why would it have made more sense? Because of her actual age? Isn't that silly? She is ACTING. She convincingly played his mother and looked every bit the part. She could easily still play a romantic lead or costar in a film...look at the stuff Nicholson pulls off. She definitely doesn't look elderly and she certainly doesn't behave that way. To me, she looked every bit like a mother of a man around Rogan's age. Hell, it wouldn't have even been too far fetched for him to have played the object of her affection in another film. Not that she'd play such a part.
One thing I can say for Streisand...she doesn't appear to be ready to stop working. And that's a wonderful thing. :)
Oh...this was my first opportunity to see Streisand on the big screen, so this film was very special for me. :)
Streisand may be 70 but boy did she look like a woman in her late 50s in the film, so even to a non-Streisand fan like myself it was very believable for her to be his mother(I still thinks she's too old to play Mama Rose though), my grandma is the same age as Streisand and looks NOWHERE near as young as Streisand looked.
