Or in the classic
North by Northwest
(Alfred Hitchcock, 1959), Jessie Royce Landis plays the mother of Cary Grant even though she was only a little over seven years older than the dashing Grant.
In other words, for better or worse, we're talking about a longtime Hollywood convention.
years older than Harrison Ford, and yet he played his dad in "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade".. but lets face it.. Who else could have?
