i enjoyed the film, but i did a quick bit of arithmetic and i noticed that Steward was 50 and Novak 25 when they made this film. in other words he was twice her age with an age difference of 25 years between them.
Maybe things were a little different then but nowadays such an age difference would surely be frowned upon?
This was before the Me Too hysteria. Humphrey Bogart, Bing Crosby ,Cary Grant -on screen romances with much younger women,married much younger ones in real life.

Why should it be?
The mindset today seems to be let people love who they love (straight, gay, etc) but age is an issue?
Seems hypocritical.
Why should age make a difference as long as they’re over 18?
