For all the textbook reasons - any individual's reading of a photograph is preceded by the evidential authority of the medium.

Otherwise you become your own connoisseur.

The thing that I've run up against is that it's always been an either-or proposition, especially in Hollywood. You're either young and glamorous and you're going to get the lead and get the man at the end of the picture, or it's the opposite: you're a character actress, you're not attractive enough for the other role, and so you're playing the friend or the killer or the lesbian or the doctor or whatever.
