It goes without saying that Sweeney and her work are fair game for criticism, but “not pretty”/ “can’t act”? This is shock-jock-level stuff. Responding via representatives,: “How sad that a woman in the position to share her expertise and experience chooses instead to attack another woman,” which sounds right . But deeper issues are wriggling about in here, that seem to say something about older women, younger women, and how we’re supposed to secretly feel about each other.
Has Sweeney unwittingly become symbolic of several divides ? To the point she’s morphed into a Rorschach test: as in, what does your opinion of Sydney Sweeney say about? Do the roles that young actors play indelibly set the tone for public perceptions? Is this why an equally talented actor, Amanda Seyfried about younger women. On the contrary, they seem much more likely to celebrate them. You only have to look at #MeToo to realise that women, young and old, naturally support each other.
