* DawsonCasting: An interesting case in ''Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore''. The film has his character (who is roughly 27 years old) attempting to seduce the titular character (who is 35) with some difficulty, as the latter is worried about the age gap. Harvey Keitel, though, ''was'' roughly 35 at the time of filming. Despite this, the film is still able to pull off the age disparity, since Ellen Burstyn was actually 42 when she played Alice.
