There is no lying going on. Those old enough to remember when the movie came out remember the "hype" of how young the actress was(18 or 19 at filming).
Yes she looked older and had that deep voice, but in this case it is the truth.
Now if you want to see BS about an age, look at Slyvia Miles IMSB pageLOL.

Holy crap, I can't believe she's only 30 in "Soapdish".

She always did look older.
Not wrinkly or saggy mind you, just more mature. I think a lot of it had to do with her husky voice and the air she had about her.
Really love her as an actress. She gives good bad!

Go walk down the street in Michigan or Wisconsin and see what most 51 year old women look like. Having said that she looks great for her age.

I remember when Raging Bull came outI was about 15 when it was released in theaters and I'm really surprised that she was fresh out of high school when she made that film. I never would have guessed she was that young. She definitely has a maturity about her, even when she was a teenager.

Her age is accurate, and as I mentioned I have the high school yearbooks to prove it! So sorry, but those guessing about her age are 100% WRONG. While ITA that many in Hollywood lie about their age, Cathy just is NOT one of them, and it's easily proven. So I wish idle gossips would stop creating/spreading lies. How interesting the some here ignore folks who post FACTS and continue posting delusions or blatant lies. Want to checkit's easyLincoln High School, Yonkers, NY. Hope this ends the BS, unless folks would rather stick with a lie vs the truth.

I'm in total agreement with you psoriosaurus (interesting name). There is no way on God's green earth that she was 17 in Raging Bull. No way!!! She was at least in her mid twenties. I will never, EVER be convinced otherwise. I'd be willing to be anyone that some day it's going to come out that she is actually quite a bit older than she claims. Many actors and actresses lie about their age. It's not unusual.
If your nose runs and your feet smell, you were built upside down.

Yes, that is her true age. Some people look more mature than others when they are younger.

Her age is totally accurate. Had you not been so rude about it, I'd offer to show her HS yearbook picture. Plus FYI she has 3 young kids (twins, and a girl). If your erroneously stated age was right, she would have made the Guiness book lol. So while, yep, folks often lie in Hollywood, you are totally off base in this case!

I heard an interview with her just yesterday (3/26) and she mentioned that she had just graduated at 17 and turned 18 when filming started. The film wasn't released until she was 20. BTW, she had nothing but good things to say about working with Marty and Bobby.

It's the truthit was well known when the movie came out that she WAS actually that young. As her bio saysstraight out of HS.
