    (IANS)


    Veteran actress Faye Dunaway, who has starred in classics like 'Chinatown' and 'Bonnie and Clyde', is angry with Hollywood film producers for not having enough roles for older women.

    The 67-year-old actress believes Hollywood executives are hypocritical because they favour older male stars like Jack Nicholson and Clint Eastwood being paired up with much young actresses on screen, contactmusic.com reports.
