5. It's odd isn't it

It isn't a bad movie, but I don't think it's a great one either.

I just read that Shia LaBeouf was originally cast as Oliver and he's the same age as Armie. Shia was the choice of James Ivory who adapted the screenplay and was originally set to direct. Then they gave the directing job to Luca Guadagnino and he wanted Armie. Ivory and Guadagnino are both gay. Is the apparent age difference a problem for me because I'm a straight woman?
