    .Realistically, I wanted to see her act like a hundred year old woman in a youthful body. No centenarian would have been impressed with Ellis' creepy persistence and his cherry-boy antics, no matter how attractive he is. She would have had too much experience to take his creepy fratboy infatuation seriously, and given sonny-boy a lecture on the proper way to woo a woman without stooping to threats and stalking. She probably has socks that are older than he is.
    Considering the idiot is 29 in 2014/15/16 and everything she owns is deeply vintage and belongs from the 1900's, and is probably what she wore 100 years ago, yes, I think she probably has one or two stockings and knickers considerably a bit older than he.

      That's why the Adaline character was disappointing. It seemed like she stayed 29 mentally as well as physically till the end.

          1. If your driver's licence says you're 45, and you look 29, people will contact the FBI.
            (seriously? I'm older and still get carded)

            I'm 32 and I look about 20. No one has contacted the FBI about my curious non-aging face.. XD

                ?#. That you wouldn't possibly be thought of as weird when you dress like you're from 1908 for 10 years. There's retro, and then there's something that just looks off. No one is going to think twice of the blonde bombshell who looks 29 for 10 years. Or you know, that she dresses like she's stuck in the 1900's, or that her apartment looks as if it's from the 1908's.

                  Anyone saw Jack or Big or The Curious Case of Bejamin Button, or 13 going on 30?
                  I just downloaded from Amazon Adeline, finsihed it and am watching my DVD of Benjamin Button (man growing younger, a la Jack). Saw both of those, and Adeline, in theatres (Adeline, if I am correct is Blake Lively's FIRST starring role, and the current out "Shallows" is her second.)

                    Some funny stuff, but
                    Incorrect with #4. Manual transmission cars can start when popping the clutch, regardless of starter or battery life. In fact, back in college, when my classic manual car was not recharging the battery (failed alternator), I'd coast down my street a bit, pop the clutchand happily be on my way.
                    However, until I got a new alternator (or starter another time),
                    I had to make certain that I parked in an area with clear downslope
                    .for the repetitious procedure! If I was in a flat area with friends, they'd push while running beside the car to hop inside. It always made us laugh. 😄
                    Manual cars are generally much easier to rig and service. That's why certain foreign countries, like Mexico, mainly rent manuals to tourists (best price too).

                      1. That the narrator in this movie is a time traveler and , thanks to him, Von Leman will now be the most sought after person (for his/her principle of electron compression in DNA) on the face of this Earth.

                        17, Its smart to sleep with someone after the first date
                        18. Its ok for a guy to tell you he loves you when he doesnt know anything about you
                        19. It makes sense to go to England if you want to study French
                        20. Norwegian braille is hard to read
                        21. 30 year olds get gray hairs
                        22. There are many hidden places to go on first dates in San Francisco
                        23. A 108 year old person will know all the answers in trivial pursuit

                          1. Old warehouses with cars that were "indoor/outdoor" movie theaters will remain as they were in the 1930s albeit empty and decaying because real estate is not prime in San Francisco!
