She is renowned for her youthful looks and fine physique.

So it was surely hard for travellers to take their eyes off Melanie Griffith's lithe legs as she rode the escalator at an airport in Los Angeles on Sunday.

The young at heart star, 58, looked like she was having a great time as she had a Joyride down the moving staircase while making her way through the arrival lounge at LAX.

Working Girl favourite Melanie looked fabulous at 58 in a pleasingly tight woollen pullover, skinny jeans and stack-heeled boots.

She even made sure she added an extra dash of Hollywood glamour to her look by wearing a pair of comically oversized sunglasses, despite the fact she was indoors.

And it looks like she came prepared for any unexpectedly cold weather, as she was also carrying a thick woollen jacket over her left arm.

She was heading for home after what was a surely fruitful few days of networking at the Sundance Film Festival in Utah.

Meanwhile her erotic movie starlet daughter Dakota Johnson, star of 2015 blockbuster Fifty Shades Of Grey, has blasted the film industry, claiming it is ageist towards female actresses.

The 26-year-old is unhappy her mother and actress grandmother Tippi Hedren, 85, do not get more roles.

Dakota told Vogue: 'Why isn't my mother in the movies? She's an extraordinary actress. Why isn't my grandmother in the movies? This industry is f***ing brutal.'
