How old was Lucy (alba)?


She was supposed to be a girl that Bill was dating so how old was she. If she is young enough to be with the kid, then it would seem a bit odd someone of his age would be dating her.

any thoughts?

Many aspects of this movie are vaguely disturbing. The kid was supposed to be an underclassman in highschool from what I understand. So he would be under 18. Lucy struck me as being in her early 20's. Not such a huge age gap, but a large maturity gap. Especially when she is watching a minor strip in her place of work.

Then Bill gets it on with another girl about that age in a tent with a minor while smoking up. Then hanging out with the kid in his underwear and taking a shower with him.

I'm not particularly bothered by much of it, but i'm a little surprised that our alarmist society hasn't railed on it more. I guess that might be because so few people have seen the movie.

yeah but she didn't touch him the entire time he "stripped" for her. I was watchign that scene carefully to see if she would even for a second, touch him during that time lol. She didn't touch him at all during that time, so even with the new 2001+ laws, that wasn't illegal.

She wasn't getting off, she just laughed ... to be nice. It would be pretty bitchy if she told him "PUT SOME DAMN CLOTHES ON, NO ONE WANTS TO SEE!"

She was in her early 20's. The age difference was done on purpose, The boy was a ladies man and hit on a much older women, shw like it, put as you saw she was only intertested in friends she backed off when he did to kiss her. The part in the tent however was confusing to me becuase the blond hooked up with Bill and it look like Lucy and the kid got together as well, him in his underware in the Morning but no Lucy
