Last year, she posed in pieces from an animal-inspired collection by Cartier.ae0fcc31ae342fd3a1346ebb1f342fcb Speaking to Vogue in 2020, Hutton explained that she never thought about whether she’d be modeling this long. “When I was in my 20s and 30s and 40s, I didn’t really think about that,” she said. “The barriers that women have broken continually make everything possible now. I always thought it was just plain dumb—even as a kid—that because someone was 65 they were supposed to be put out to pasture. A lot of people are tired and want to be put out to pasture, and that’s fine—they should go do what they want to do—but if you don’t and you have all this experience, it seems like a dumb thing. It certainly doesn’t take too much for me to go walk down a runway once in a while…” Some of the films Hutton is best known for are Paper Lion (1968), The Gambler (1974), and American Gigolo (1980). More recently, in 2007, she appeared on a couple of episodes of Nip/Tuck, and she was in the movie The Joneses in 2009. Her most recent movie role was in the 2018 comedy I Feel Pretty, which starred Amy Schumer. “When I got the call offering me a role in Amy Schumer’s I Feel Pretty, I hadn’t made a movie in 10 years and was on my way to dive with great white sharks off the coast of Mexico,” Hutton told Harper’s Bazaar. She said that she “didn’t have time to read the script before I got on the boat” but said yes right away because she wanted to work with Schumer.

She’s a huge fan of exploring the world and of doing adventurous and risky things like scuba diving and riding motorcycles. In fact, she got into a bad motorcycle accident in 2000 that required multiple surgeries, but according to Today, it made her want to live life to the fullest even more. “I used to spend three months out of the year traveling in Africa, mostly in Tanzania but also in Ethiopia, Somalia, and Congo, and I really wigged out on wildlife,” she told InStyle last year. “I’ve had these nanosecond smatterings of escaping death, particularly with animals, and those are the moments when I’ve learned the most. The biggest thrill in life is seeing how precious it is, when you come so close to just throwing it away by holding a crocodile’s claw or something.” By the way, the story about narrowly escaping a crocodile really happened to her in the ’70s. Hutton is often asked about beauty tips. And while she told Vogue she does pilates and drinks a lot of water, she shared that her biggest piece of advice has nothing to do with diet or exercise. “Love is the best one. Just love,” she said. “Try to find someone you love, even if it’s a kid. Just love as many people as you can. It’s really nice to roll around with somebody and feel skin. I’m saying all these things I shouldn’t be saying!” RELATED: See Bond Girl Barbara Bach Now at 74.
