In this month's The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Maggie Smith and Judi Dench return to their favorite Indian resort, proving it's never too late for seasoned broads to enjoy a sun-kissed setting. Here, others who've faced their golden years under golden rays.
Bette Davis,
Death on the Nile (1978)
The 70-year-old diva gets her Agatha Christie on, playing a klepto with deep pockets and a fab array of wide-brimmed hats, in this adaptation of the author's Egypt-set whodunit.
Peggy Ashcroft,
A Passage to India (1984)
With her portrayal of a claustrophobic, yet ever-poised Brit trekking to the Indian caves near fictional Chandrapore, Dame Peggy became the oldest gal to win the Supporting Actress Oscar--at 77.
Kim Cattrall,
Sex and the City 2 (2010)
Yes, it's an Abu Dhabi disasterpiece better left under the Persian rug. But there's a certain giddy joy in seeing age-obsessed Samantha spreading her legs for something new: a camel ride. 
Cicely Tyson,
The Trip to Bountiful (2014)
Reprising the role that scored her a 2013 Tony, 80-year-old Tyson shook up Lifetime as a tireless lady with one thing on her bucket list: hopping a bus to her sweltering Texas hometown.
The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel is in theaters Feb. 26. Watch the trailer below:
