I wonder if she didn't take ozempic. She's gotten very, very thin.


It seemed odd that she covered up at the swimming pool because the young girlfriends were much bigger than her.

I think it was partially about them being bigger, but in a desirable way. Bigger, perkier breasts and butts that looked good in skimpy bikinis. Her covering up like a granny was still a bit OTT though.

It wasn't about size. It was about youth. A skinny body at 40 is different than one at 20. Even if you both are a size 0.

Beauty standards have changed. Youth these days do not want to be skinny. They want curves.

That wrecked the movie for you?
The actresses are almost 20 years apart IRL.

Just watched it. It was a mindless predictable movie. There isn’t much depth. Acting was so so. The only good thing was it was free.

Really liked it.

It was enjoyable - like an ice cream sundae. I didn’t think about it again after I watched it. Although I thought her acting was great - she’s fun to watch. There’s been controversy about her on this board - people inexplicably hate her. But hopefully that will put he to bed. She’s obviously very talented (has been on Broadway and has real chops).

Didn’t wreck the movie BUT for me it was irritating.

Watched in last night and I thought it was really good!

Hathaway did a great job of portraying how a 40 year old would feel/deal with the complicated feelings around this relationship. I really got the cringe factor in several places. I also thought the chemistry between her and Galatzine was amazing. He was really good too. I felt like the story was a little thin on the substance of their relationship, but that's ok. He presented as more mature than an average 24 year old guy.

The guy that played Daniel was also great - if you watched VEEP he was a scheming aide with absolutely no scruples, so this part was perfect for him. I LOVED Hayes conversation with him where he's casually like F-you.

All in all, very enjoyable.

A lot of women m in their 40s are gorgeous, fit, accomplished and interesting, and it's very weird to hear her say, "I'm too old for you." As if he's the catch in the scenario. It's just stupid. Their age difference should be a non issue, not the premise of the movie


? Haven’t read the book or seen the movie yet, but as a woman in her late 40s with kids (including sons) there’s no way I would feel comfortable dating a 20 something or even 30 something. So I completely understand the premise of the movie and why the female lead would say such a thing.


I'm 48 and dating (and living with) a man who is 36. We're both totally comfortable with our age difference. There was no point at which I felt too old for him.


Wait til you are 58.


You must not understand percentages. 48 is 33% older than 36, but 58 is only 26% older than 46. It is because of percentage differences that people say that it’s OK to date 50% of your age plus seven years.
