I think she is talented and stunning but I'm also taken slightly aback by the fact that there used to be and still often are these huge age gaps between actors playing married couples or lovers. For decades, we have been conditioned to look at very young girls in romantic parts where they have been matched with older men 10-20-30 years or more their seniors but onscreen their characters are supposedly "of an age" - and as a consequence we often find onscreen images of young women in their 30s to look "old" or "tired" instead of simply looking their age. It's awful.
