I’ve wanted to write
but probably never will.
I’m Getting Older
one of them.
A friend asked me
who I’d play me
if I were casting a movie.
Elaine May I said
even though we’re not alike
and she is 90 now.
Another friend said today
if we were casting
for our roles we’d have
to find women in their fifties
who could play Old.
No one wants to see us
on the stage.
(I always want to see
Elaine May.)
Esther you would be a delightful character on film or stage and i hope it happens so please write that book and pitch the hell out of it
Have you seen Elaine May in Woody Allen's "Crisis in Six Scenes?"
My fantasy is for Mariska Hargitay to play me. Or Ann Bancroft > except she's worse than too old, she's dead. (Sob.) I would also like to imagine: Viola Davis, Scarlett Johansson, Pauley Perrette, Cote de Pablo, Lady Gaga (who according to <https://www.creativecareernow.com/celebrity > is a 33% match to my looks. Especially the meat dress, right?!)
