Films such as Something's Gotta Give (2003), Mama's Boy (2007) and Because I Said So (2007), Diane Keaton has emerged as 'the poster woman' for a body of newly inflected romantic comedies, films which have placed the desire of and for an older woman heroine at their centre. Through textual analysis, particularly of Something's Gotta Give and media discourses surrounding both this film and Keaton more broadly during this period this article explores how Keaton returned to such prominence, specifically in this genre and at an age when it is typically presumed most women actors will have receded from the spotlight. Keaton carries what we might call a heightened sense of history, that her oeuvre has built over the course of some four decades to shore up a recognisable performance style and to enable numerous reflexive connections across her films.
