Olympia Dukakis has landed the lead in the Australian movie ”Over the Hill.”
She hasn`t stopped working since she earned a Best Supporting Actress Oscar as the mother in ”Moonstruck.”
Now she`s making ”Dad” with Jack Lemmon and Ted Danson, and as soon as she finishes that next month, she rushes home to Montclair, N.J., to help her actor/husband Louis Zorich prepare for the John Kander and Fred Ebb revue the Zorichs will be presenting in June at their Whole Theater.
After that, she`ll do a turn at the Williamstown Summer Festival in
”Mother Courage” with her daughter Christina Zorich.
And after that: ”I`ll get ready for `Over the Hill.` It`s shooting in Australia and I`m excited about that; I`ve never been there.”
Upcoming for her are ”Daddy`s Home” and ”Steel Magnolias.”
