I never saw the whole film but I know it was about a young man and an old lady played by Helen Hayes.
Hollywood is very ageist. Men are always being paired up with much younger actresses. Take Harrison Ford. He's 59. Do you think we'd ever see a 59 year old actress as his romantic interest? That's great that Sean Connery's wife was his age. I haven't seen that movie. If it's a husband and wife who have been married a long time then they migt use older people. But a romantic, adventure type film just won't have that. Sad. And Woody Allen still puts himself with young actresses. Yuck. Well what do you expect considering who he married? I saw a trailer fort his new film and he looked pathetic still going after young women. That's why I like Michelle Pfieffer. I know she's in her 40's and yet she still gets leading roles. Good for her! But she's a rare case.
