During the interview, MacLaine revealed that working with Peter Dinklage in American Dreamer was a pleasure. She explained since it had been the first time they had worked together, she had expected some snags. However, the process was incredibly smooth. She said of it, “we really hit it off.”
The 89-year-old actress played the role of Astrid Fanelli, a wealthy widow who felt lonely. The upcoming film delves into the concept of the American dream. “I think that we should care more about what the American democracy means,” she said. “We seem to have forgotten what it means, and I think it’s time we get back into the level of reality of understanding American democracy.”
At 89 years of age, Shirley MacLaine is showing absolutely no signs of slowing down.
Despite her gracious age, the Academy Award-winning actress continues to give and can regularly be seen enjoying Martinis while dining out in Hollywood.
During her seven-decade long career, the Steel Magnolia star has seen it all. Indeed, her life stories are virtually unparalleled compared to those of her contemporaries…
Shirley MacLaine has been around a long, long time, and made so many awesome films during her heyday. The Apartment, The Trouble With Harry, Two Mules For Sister Sara, Guarding Tess – I could go on forever.
Her performance in the classic 1989 film Steel Magnolia is still talked about today, but in real life Shirley is far from the short-tempered character she played in the film, Ouiser Boudreaux.
“Not that much bothers me,” she said in 2019.
