By three months.
Watching the scene where he turns up to Murrons home and meets "the parents" I thought "mom looks around Mel's age."
Sure enough, both born in 56. (Gerda Stevenson is her name.)
yeah, but that's normal for hollywood. like the old movies where a 50 year old was courting a 23 year old lol
i think mel cast himself in the lead for obvious reasons, figuring the viewers wouldn't probably even realize he's older than the authentic character. i think wallace was actually quite young.
btw the sister movie to this is really good, with chris pine playing robert the bruce. (outlaw king)
Not only just in Hollywood - Dorothy de Rothschild married her 35 year old cousin when aged just 17...
shareIn olden days Wallass would be 17 and Murron 13, so it makes sense.
