18 Notes

Michelle Pfeiffer is eleven years older than Paul Rudd; Sandra Bullock is twelve years older than Ryan Reynolds.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that - but there’s loads of examples of the age gap in these sorts of films being the other way around, and these struck me as interesting and sadly quite unusual counter-examples.

(These films both look awful though.)
