8) Sally Field in Forrest Gump (1994)
Trending
Sally Field was only 10 years older than Tom Hanks when she played his mother, Mrs. Gump, in the classic movie Forrest Gump. While not much of an age gap, Field played a doting mother whose wisdom and resilience guided Forrest's life. Field played Mrs. Gump so convincingly that audiences never doubted the age gap.
From her vivid advice, "Life is like a box of chocolates," to her unceasing support of Forrest, the performance by Field became one of the movie's emotional touchstones. She was at her finest, transcending the age mismatch, and really proving to be an exquisite talent for an actress.
