Shirley MacLaine, 90, is searching for a personal assistant who can make her a cocktail every night

The icon appears to be in a reflective mood of late, with insiders telling DailyMail.com that whoever lands the job would also need to 'discuss her movies and career' every night.

The 90-year-old actress - who recently released a photographic memoir- appears to be in a particularly reflective mood of late, with insiders telling DailyMail.com that whoever lands the job would need to be able to 'discuss her movies and career' while they sip their tipples. Robert de Niro's requests for his former PA Graham Chase Robinson were not well received, with the actor forced to pay her after it was revealed in court that he treated her like an 'office wife' - asking her to perform menial tasks including washing his sheets and scratching his back. By 1989, Shirley had been a star for decades, making her bones on Broadway first and then launching her screen career in 1955 with her movie debut The Trouble With Harry, a black comedy directed by Alfred Hitchcock.
