Helen is also 8 years older, so not exactly the same gen. If jos watched a movie they were in the year he was born he'd be watching a 40 year old Broderick and a 48 year old Mirren. That obviously goes up with each year. Its easy to see why a older Mirren stick to his mind.

It's sexist to have James Bond stick in my head but every film featuring Helen Mirren I can recall being from the last decade or two?

I just can't remember Mirren not being an old lady

You need to watch Caligula, or Excalibur.

Sexism

Suggests Jos may just not have seen enough Helen Mirren was not an old woman in Long Good Friday (also featuring Brosnan in a small role) or Prime Suspect

Thursday murder club - twee, some amusing moments, soso. Breaks my head to think that Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnen are in the same age group. I just can't remember Mirren not being an old lady

Sexist or ageist, you decide.

You olds stick together

Also seems that if Venezuela is under the boot of evil gangs of narco-terrorists that are so horrific that must all be killed, then all the Venezuelan migrants in the US should have pretty solid asylum cases.

It's funny trump is attacking his fellow populist dictator in Venezuela thus bailing out the democratic socialist leader of Guyana.

Probably.

They're not even hiding their reason for a regime change.
