I get that it's pure fantasy and that's fine. But even fantasy has to have a certain plausibility.
On what planet would a hot millionaire pilot pursue a widowed housewife 10 years his senior? I'm not denigrating Diane Keaton. She's in decent shape for 72. But no way no way no way would Andy Garcia, who is 62 and looking fine, be attracted to her. Why couldn't they have given her a love interest closer to her age and more her economic class? A hot millionaire pilot would be with a good looking 40 something.
You are right, it is not very likely. But it is certainly plausible.
I dated someone 14 years my junior, as well as someone who is a hot millionaire (and I am nowhere near their standards both economically and looks-wise). Sure I am not 72 but I can see how people can date outside of their presumed or even actual preferences. It totally happens. Once in a blue moon but it does.
The movie was shit, but for other reasons
btw, have you seen "Somethings gotta give"? If so, what did you think about a super hot young doctor (Keanu Reeves) dating a 70 year old Diane Keaton there? I thought they had a Great chemistry and it totally worked. and it was even more of age difference there.
