Just out of curiousity,
How would you guys feel if the genders were reversed?
What if some 16/17 year old guy fell in love and married a hot cougar, would you feel just as disgusted if the genders were reversed?
Most likely. But to be honest, it's more the fact the he just comes off as one creepy beep, not so much the age difference.

Not suprising in the least. This guy played a creepy, sadistic SOB in The Green Mile. No morally sound person would have ever respected the disgusting low-life he portrayed.
And look at thishe actually turns 16d0out to be a total creep in real life. He even looks creepy in the marriage pictures. I suppose part of the brilliance of The Green Mile was the casting director's keen eye for assessing the natual charachter of an actor and how he would fit into a certain role.

if it wasn't for the make-up and hair she could almost look normal. i think you'd find lots of fellas would take an interest in her. but marriage? whoops.
however, 16 is too young to get married to anyone, regardless of the spouse's age.
hopefully Doug wasn't her first. it'd be tragic if she locked in to one person with nil experience.

Hmmm. I guess he married her rather than enjoy some kind of relationship for a short while. So that is admirable as he's given her a status to counteract negative comment from family or we onlookers.
Many have accused him of being 'paedo', but I have the opinion that a paedo is attracted by somebody who looks like a child. I don't think his missus has done that. She's done the typical teenage thing of attempting to look as old as she can.
Besides that, he's not done himself any favours on several levels. He's either been a victim of her street wiseness, or vice versa.
I feel he might be fooling himself if he thinks it will last into the times he has middle aged/elderly illness and expects her to support him.
I guess I've been a cougar, and my sis' husband is 13yrs younger than her. I respect her hubby and think he's more fun and has more get up and go than any guy she's dated. But she worries now that he's hit 'that' age.
As an actor, I've respected Doug for the work I've seen. I was completely knocked out by his portrayal as Percy in The Green Mile. I've been delighted to recognize him in other movies too.
