Demi Moore, 62, in her acceptance speech for best film actress in 'The Substance,' stated, "I had a woman say to me, just know you will never be enough, but you can know the value of your worth if you just put down the measuring stick." She told journalists backstage about how many women spend much of their lives as caretakers and don't get to spend their energy outward. And now, at 62, she feels really damn good to spend her energy outward. 

Jodie Foster, who won Best Actress in a Limited Series stated that the 60s are a "golden age" because there's like "a hormone that happens when suddenly you go, 'Oh, I don't really care about all the stupid things anymore". She also called this era the "most contented moment in my career."
