She began emerging in major movies relatively in her late age. Despite the fact she was born in 1932 when also
Elizabeth Taylor was born, her major appearence in movies seems to be delayed until after 1970s. Considering the
fact the latter's appearance is mainly limitted to 1950s, Burstyn's career as a movie actress is rather astonishing.
She won the best actress Academy Award for "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore"(1975). Now still we can
see her in several movies.
