Mel Gibson in one of his earliest movies (when he was about 25) plays a rather sweet (hey let's face it: hunky) and slightly retarded young gardener who likes his middle aged female employer played by Piper Laurie who really, really likes him, but in a rather restrained lustfulness: barging into his room at night all she does is gaze at him sleeping before stealing away.His sister is appalled at this gender bending May -December romance (she wants to marry into a prominent local family and fears it might jeopardize her upcoming nuptials).His employer (the middle aged woman) is so appalled she seeks pastoral counseling : young men older women romances were taboo 25 years ago! And she is racked with guilt. Surprisingly, her pastor is in favor so long as she marries Mel (lustfulness in marriage is ok!).Also, Mel's parents are in favor: they are old and worried about who will care for their mentally retarded son after they die, so having him quietly married off would be best for their son.There is a very charming scene of Mel and Laurie cavorting on the beach, tumbling down the dunes, she wearing a full body-covering caftan and big floppy hat, and he in the cutest of cut-off swim trunks looking as cute as a young and still inexperienced actor can manage.It's embarrassing to watch at times , but my mother, aged 80+, really liked it.So, more power to female audience oriented soft-core porn!
