It's on my to watch list. What makes you say you're not surprised? Is it the older woman younger man concept?

There seems to be a few lately. We watched lonely planet last week, which saw a young Liam Hemsworth getting together with an older Laura Dern, Was a very good movie.

I don't know if that's what you mean or if there is another element of the story but it does seem to still raise eye brows today if a younger man is with an older woman, yet someone like Dicaprio is always dating very much younger women and it's considered the norm.
