Heart of Stone (1985) from Tuna |

SPOILERS: Heart of Stone (2001) is a serial killer/thriller film. There is a ritualistic murder of a co-ed during the opening credits, then we see Angie Everhart preparing a birthday party for her daughter, who is about to start college. After the party, Everhart tries to seduce her own husband, who is frequently away on business. At this point in the film, about 5 minutes in, based on the man's character and the way they introduced him, I figured he must be the killer. |

From there, they do their level best to convince the audience that someone else is guilty. A younger man seduces Everhart, then tricks her into lying to give him an alibi for the time of a second ritual killing. He stalks her, we learn that he is a former mental patient, and eventually see him kill several people. Nearing the last five minutes of the film, Everhart's daughter has killed the young man, and I was still convinced that the husband was the serial killer. Sure enough, I was right. |

Portrayals of mature women are shifting from secondary "mother" roles toward more complex, albeit still stereotyped, leads. Through the raw, unvarnished performances of a generation
Nevertheless, the direction of travel is undeniable. The mature woman in entertainment is no longer a tragic footnote or a comedic afterthought. She is the protagonist, the anti-hero, the lover, and the warrior. Through the raw, unvarnished performances of a generation of actresses who refused to fade quietly, and the work of writers and directors finally willing to listen, cinema and television are beginning to reflect a profound truth: that the human heart in conflict with itself is a story for a lifetime. And in that story, the most compelling chapters are often written in the second half of the book. The future of entertainment, one hopes, will be one where a woman’s age is not a limitation to be overcome, but a reservoir of stories waiting to be told.
