#meanwhile Stewart shows up at the door in Vertigo and it's like your father's sad friend is here

Idk how to say this in way that doesn't sound insulting, but movies push my ability to suspend disbelief when they have hot young things fall in love with 50-60s Jimmy Stewart
#like if all the girls in the movie are somehow into silver foxes that's pushing it kind of but I'll go along with it#but just liking silver foxes isn't going to make Jimmy Stewart work#and like when he was young sure whatever#I still see plenty of women mooning over young Jimmy Stewart NOW#but like#middle aged and on Jimmy Stewart is your dad#your cool uncle at best#an attractive 20-something gal is NOT going to fall in love with him#this is all because it's the second time I've watched Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak paired#and I still feel like the heroine's interest might make sense with some other guy much older than her-- but not with Stewart#like they throw a 20-something at Cary Grant and I'm like ethically I'm against how normally this is being treated but it works ok#and then like Grace Kelly in To Catch a Thief feels like she has enough daddy issues that of course she's into him#meanwhile Stewart shows up at the door in Vertigo and it's like your father's sad friend is here#no old man thirst in the world is powerful enough to jump that “hiya pops!” energy#watch me immediately be contradicted by somebody on this site who hasn't hit 30 yet and still dreams of jumping Stewart's avuncular bones
