We all harbor secrets. Some are big and bad; some are small and trivial. Researchers have parsed which truths to tell and which not to.

We don't need a research study to explain to us why older men enjoy dating younger women. But what about the women? Stereotypes aside, many women cite maturity, wisdom , and financial stability as good reasons to date men who are older.
But is there too much of a good thing? When women date and marry men old enough to be their fathers, it brings up the question of whether there should be an upper limit to an appropriate age gap.
Research reveals both evolutionary and social motives to explain women´s desire to date older men. But regardless of the legitimacy of motive, both parties in men-older age gap relationships often have to overcome stigma and stereotype.
What is it about seeing an older man with a much younger adult woman in public holding hands that gives some people pause? Cultural norms? Societal expectations? And knowing nothing about the couple, why do people make snap judgments and attributions of ulterior motives?
Researchers have been tackling these important questions for years, and provide some answers.
Brian Collisson and Luciana Ponce De Leon (2018) examined why couples in age gap relationships are subject to prejudice and negative stereotypes. [i] In terms of gender differences, they found that the link between perceived relational inequity and prejudice was higher when the man in a relationship was older, rather than the woman.
In explaining the rationale behind perceiving that an older man in a relationship has the upper hand, Collisson and De Leon note that even labels used to describe partners in age-gap relationships imply relational inequity. They note that the term cradle robber implies that older men are stealing younger women, and alternatively, the term gold digger insinuates that younger partners pursue older counterparts for money and resources.
Some adult women are assumed to be looking for an older man to financially support a comfortable lifestyle within which to raise children. In other cases, women are alleged to have selected an older paramour to gain access to resources and connections in order to further their own career , business, or other aspirations.
But contrary to stereotype, many age-gap couples do not display even the appearance of ulterior financial or professional motives. Many such couples are similar in every way except chronological age. How do we explain how these couples got together? Could it be that in many cases, it is simply true love, or are there other reasons?
Looking for ulterior motives to explain atypical pairings of mature men and much younger women, some have advanced theories about women seeking older men due to relational dynamics with their own fathers. Research in this area, accordingly, has sought to distinguish truth from fiction.
Sara Skentelbery and Darren Fowler (2016) investigated the attachment styles of heterosexual women who date older men. [ii] They note that research reveals a negative view of couples when the age gap between them is significant. They also recognize the commonly held belief that women who date men who are 10 or more years older have unhealthy relationships with their fathers. But is it true? According to their research, the answer is no.
In their study of 173 women, 44 of whom were dating men at least approximately 10 years older, the stereotype of women choosing significantly older paramours as a result of “daddy issues” was unsupported. Further, Skentelbery and Fowler found no significant difference in attachment styles between women in similar-age relationships and women in age-gap relationships. In fact, they found that 74 percent of the women in age-gap relationships enjoyed a relationship within which they were securely attached.
Apparently many couples with age differences enjoy healthy, fulfilling, loving relationships. Having come together without ulterior motives or emotional childhood issues, many such pairings are strong, stable, and able to withstand societal scrutiny.
We can safely assume that there will always be couples that seek to pair up for ulterior motives, perhaps in pursuit of a marriage of convenience. But research also seems to suggest that, happily, true love is still alive and well.

If you look closely almost half of the relationship films made in Hollywood and elsewhere are about older men and younger women. But, technically, most of those films don’t qualify for this list simply because even though there might be a huge gap between the age of actors, the characters are presumed to be much closer in age. For instance, in every movie that features Tom Cruise, his love interest is typically played by someone in his 20s. He himself is in his 50s. But obviously, in films, he always plays 30-something characters (okay, on rare occasions, 40-something).
This list is specifically about the films where the age difference is acknowledged. Older woman-young man relationship movies are rarely made, but when they are made directors don’t have to worry about looking like perverts. But older man-younger woman relationship movies require special sensitivity since the film — and the filmmaker — can quickly be judged as creepy and predatory if the story is not handled appropriately. That’s why we have had very few good movies made on the subject. Here’s the list of best movies about older man-younger woman relationships.
‘Guinevere’ is a forced-romance film, centred around a melodramatic relationship between a 50-year old Casanova photographer and a 20-something misfit, who becomes the photographer’s protégé in her search for attention liking from men. ‘Guinevere’ showcases the likelihood of young girls falling prey to the charm and affection of charismatic older women, but director Audrey Wells’ aesthetic direction has made this film a piece worth a watch. ‘Guinevere’ follows the unusual and forced relationship between protagonist Harper Sloane (Sarah Polley) and Connie Fitzpatrick (Stephen Rea). Why forced?
Throughout the film, Connie has been depicted as a man who can’t be trusted with his instincts and intentions unclear; however, Harper’s affection and love towards him forces her to stay with him until she is confronted with his true self and reality of his past relationships. The film, however, loses grasp over its intensity and elements of surprise, as it takes predictable terms, followed by a weakly and vaguely shot ending and climax (a result of a possible tight schedule and budget). Though Wells’ direction and Polley’s performance are a fantastic contribution to the film, the underdevelopment of supporting characters (especially that of Harper’s mother), loose construction of the storyline, and a not-so-enthusiastic ending diminish the film’s potential.
Nominated for three Cesar Awards, ‘Noce Blanche’ is a French-language movie depicting the attraction, affection, and romance between a man and a considerably younger girl, which takes a pessimistic turn as their love for each other grows, crossing boundaries of societal trends and obligations. ‘Noce Blanche’ is a tale of 17-year old Mathilde, whose loneliness caused by her father’s absence and her suicidal mother leads her in an exploitative state, leading her to fall for a married man in his later ages. As his presence begins to cure her solitude and isolation, her lack of sanity and sensibility causes her to become obsessed with her newly found love, which ultimately leads to the destruction of lives and many relationships.
‘Noce Blanche’ is the old man-younger woman relationship movie, which follows a morally wrong storyline, showcasing how nauseating can uncontrolled desires, seclusion, and stubbornness can do to the human mind. Vanessa Paradis plays Mathilde, who actually isn’t the film’s attention despite being the lead protagonists. Her major scenes depict her in a state of anguish, anger, and anxiety, which limits her acting and expressions. However, lead actor Bruno Cremer provides for an astonishing portrayal of Francois, an intelligent man caught in a spell of irresistible compassion.
An ageing actor, trying to revive his career embarks on a relationship with his ex-girlfriend’s young daughter, which turns his life upside down. ‘The Humbling’ is one of the prominent highlights of actor Al Pacino’s filmography in his later years. Pacino plays Simon Axler, a broken and forgotten actor, who is trying to regain his identity among the viewers through Broadway, but his stage fright and fear of self-presentation prevent him from doing so. Confronted by the horrors of his past, Axler finds a fine support in his “goddaughter” Peegen. The film then revolves around the lives of these two characters which takes a new turn when they embark on an unexpected relationship. The conclusion set on a Broadway stage gives the viewers an ordinary but astonishing end for the story.
‘The Humbling’ is though not a popular film, it deserves appreciation for its new take on a romantic-drama. After a series of shortcomings, ‘The Humbling’ is a fair revival of Al Pacino’s career, who had been looking for a way to get back in the world. Not a blockbuster, ‘The Humbling’ however, deserves an audience.
‘My First Mister’ chronicles the story of a troubled teen Jennifer, a gothic-styled girl struggling to live by the norms of the society. As she graduates, she is given a job by Randall Harris, a clothing store owner. As she tries to adopt the reality of her life, she finds solace in the pieces of advice and experience of a much mature and realistic Randall, forming an unusual friendship with him.
For how ‘My First Mister’ is an inclusion to the list, the answer is that the old man-younger woman relationship here is not the bond of love, but the bond of friendship. Albert Brooks (who is known for his later role in Drive) plays Randall Brooks, a divorcee living an isolated and monotonous life, while Leelee Sobieski plays Jennifer, the teenager looking for answers of life. The film is worth watching for its focus on multiple teenage complexities and it aesthetically depicts the human need and requirements of reaching out to a friend or a person who care to see what the life is about, in this case, what life has for one. Off all the romantic couples portrayed on-screen, this one is an endearing and sweetest and sentimental kind.
Hollywood is known for films that bring out a compelling result from the most basic and simple storylines. ‘Blue Car’ is one such movie which, despite many flaws, does not fail to impress the viewers with its enigmatic characters and the dynamic performances of the actors portraying them. ‘Blue Car’ is the story of a young teen Meg, who is awkwardly and uncomfortably attracted to her English teacher given their common interest and passion for writing. The film chronicles this teacher-student relationship as Meg prepares herself for a poetry contest, which drastically ends on a completely jaw-dropping node, providing an unexpected twist in the final plot.
The film maintains a strong A+ throughout its running time, taking its perfection and realism to another level in the last moments of the film. The cast, here, David Strathairn and Agnes Bruckner, give outstanding performances to hold the film together. Considering it comes from a debut director, ‘Blue Car’ is one of the few films that pay that much of an attention to detailing and background exploration, which has made this film, despite the few flaws and quibbles, a remarkable cinematic experience.
Despite not a romantic film, ‘An Awfully Big Adventure’ is a baffling story of a young girl Stella Bradshaw, who falls for a man considerably older than her while she tries to fulfil her sexual urges and desires by other means possible. Hugh Grant plays Meredith Potter, a homosexual and sadist director of the theatre group Stella works at, as well as the love interest of 16-yr old Stella. Alan Rickman plays O’Hara, an actor in his forties who fell for Stella but is eventually used by her for sexual benefits. As the story moves, the relationship between Stella and the two men begins to collapse due to Stella’s biased affection for Meredith despite his deeds and O’Hara’s deep concerns for her well-being.
The film is a complicated romantic triangle between the three protagonists, wherein the girl is a teenager while the men are considerably elder than her. Though received moderately by the critics, the presence of names likes Alan Rickman and Hugh Grant has made this film an interesting experience. The film isn’t a romantic folklore disguised as a British sadistic tale but is a sad and unpleasant theatrical filled with dark character elements and a jaw-dropping, but a dissolute and unwanted ending. Based on Beryl Bainbridge’s novel of the same name, “An Awfully Big Adventure” is a dark metaphorical tale, admirable for its eccentricity blended with a subtle screenp
