Faye Dunaway, still Bonnie at 66

It's 40 years since she played a female desperado in Bonnie and Clyde.

It is possible, of course, that she has discovered the secret of eternal youth.

But given the Hollywood fashion for cosmetic surgery, she would be the exception if she hadn't opted for the odd nip and tuck.

Miss Dunaway was pictured during filming of a trailer for Fashion: The Movie, which will be a big-budget blockbuster if director Jeff Espanol can secure enough funding.

She has said: "I am furious that they think I'm too old to play the love interest of guys like Jack Nicholson and Clint Eastwood.

"Why should I play sisters and mothers while guys like Jack and Clint, who are older than me, have onscreen lovers half their age?"
