HOW JAMIE GROWS; pg. 136
Four years after being photographed for MORE with no make-up and bare thighs, Jamie Lee Curtis proves she’s still as real as ever. With a poem specially penned for MORE, the mother, actress and children’s book author talks about her evolving marriage to actor-director Christopher Guest, leaving Hollywood to be with her children and her self-esteem issues. “I’m not saying I’m a spiritually perfect person. I’m flawed and contradictory and fraught in many areas. But I’m better. I’m growing, and that’s all I really want.”

Novelist and critic Francine Prose discusses this new phenomenon and offers her must-see list on great movies featuring actresses over 40, like Felicity Huffman in Transamerica and Sandra Bullock in this fall’s upcoming Infamous.
