In May, Jacki Weaver clapped back to an apparent dig Anjelica Huston made about her and Diane Keatons film, Poms.

I dont like that kind of thing. If Im going to be an old lady—and Im sort of touching old lady these days—at least I want to be a special old lady.”

And I thought, Thats a bit mean and petty.” The Australian actress also cracked, “I would say she must be going through menopause, but she must have had that ages ago.”
