So, I'm watching this great movie on Hulu - "Secrets in their Eyes". Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts have large acting

parts in this crime drama. I got to wondering how old each were and find out they are both 57. Wow. Roberts is definitely showing her age, but Kidman just looks much younger. Not sure if it's the acting, but I find Roberts character/looks a lot more attractive.

I love both actresses. Do you mean they were 57 when the movie was made, or are they 57 right now?

Movie is really excellent, just surprised how much Roberts looks natural for her age.

there's just something unnatural-looking

kudos to Ms. Roberts if she is skipping that plastic crap

Secret in Their Eyes is a 2015 thriller film written and directed by Billy Ray and a remake of the 2009 Argentine film of the same name, both based on the novel La pregunta de sus ojos by Eduardo Sacheri. A co-production between the United States, the United Kingdom, South Korea, and Spain, the film stars Chiwetel Ejiofor, Nicole Kidman, and Julia Roberts, with Dean Norris, Michael Kelly, Joe Cole, and Alfred Molina in supporting roles.

The film was released by STXfilms on November 20, 2015. It received a mixed reception from critics, who praised its performances but compared it unfavorably to the original.

So that was 10 years ago when they were both 47.
